FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
247 PM EDT FRI JUL 17 2026
DISCUSSION
RH VALUES THIS AFTERNOON HAVE DROPPED TO 30-40% FOR
MOST AREAS WITH SOME 25-30% AREAS IN THE UPPER HUDSON VALLEY AND
SOUTHERN ADKS, BUT GENERALLY LIGHT WINDS AND GUSTS <15 MPH WILL
PREVENT ANY WIDESPREAD FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS THIS AFTERNOON.
NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STORMS TOMORROW SHOULD GIVE MOST AREAS ENOUGH
RAIN TO REDUCE FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE
WEEK. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS EXPECTED TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY SHOULD FURTHER LIMIT ANY FIRE WEATHER THREAT.
