FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
400 PM EDT TUE MAR 25 2025
DISCUSSION
RH VALUES THIS AFTERNOON ARE IN THE 20-30% RANGE ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE MID HUDSON VALLEY, WITH SOME 15-20 MPH WIND GUSTS.
HOWEVER, THERE IS NOT ENOUGH AREAL COVERAGE TO NECESSITATE AN
SPS, ESPECIALLY WITH WIDESPREAD RAIN IN THIS AREA YESTERDAY. RH
VALUES REGION-WIDE RECOVER TO AT LEAST 80%. TOMORROW, RH VALUES
OF 35-45% ARE POSSIBLE IN THE HUDSON ALONG WITH LOCALIZED WIND
GUSTS OF UP TO 20 MPH AROUND THE CAPITAL DISTRICT AND MOHAWK
VALLEY, WITH LOWER GUSTS ELSEWHERE. GIVEN SCATTERED RAIN/SNOW
SHOWERS TOMORROW AND LACK OF MORE WIDESPREAD HIGHER WIND GUSTS,
WE DETERMINED PER COLLABORATION WITH NEIGHBORING OFFICES THAT
SPS ISSUANCE WAS NOT NEEDED FOR TOMORROW EITHER.
THURSDAY COULD FEATURE MORE ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS, WITH
MORE WIDESPREAD RH VALUES DROPPING TO AS LOW AS 20-30% AND WIND
GUSTS AS HIGH AS 20 MPH, ESPECIALLY FROM THE MOHAWK VALLEY THROUGH
THE CAPITAL DISTRICT. FRIDAY WILL ALSO FEATURE RH VALUES IN MANY
AREAS AT OR BELOW 30%, BUT WINDS LOOK LIGHTER ON FRIDAY.
WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION IS THEN EXPECTED OVER THE WEEKEND.
