FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR CENTRAL/NORTHERN VERMONT AND
NORTHERN NEW YORK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BURLINGTON VT
420 AM EDT TUE APR 23 2024
..NEAR RED FLAG CONDITIONS TODAY, THEN RAIN AND COOL WEDNESDAY
DISCUSSION
DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON. THE CORE OF THE LOWEST
DEWPOINTS WILL HAPPEN THIS MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON. HOWEVER,
ABUNDANT SUNSHINE WILL WARM US INTO THE 60S AND ALLOW FOR LARGE
DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS. VERMONT AND NORTHERN NEW YORK HAVE NOT
RECEIVED A QUARTER INCH OF RAIN IN 3 DAYS, BUT SEVERAL LOCATIONS
HAVE AT LEAST OBSERVED MORE THAN A QUARTER INCH IN THE LAST 5
DAYS. THE MINIMUM RH VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO BE SLIGHTLY HIGHER
COMPARED TO YESTERDAY, BUT STILL LIKELY TO DIP INTO THE 20 PERCENT
RANGE. PARTS OF THE ST. LAWRENCE VALLEY MAY STAY ABOVE 30 PERCENT
DEPENDING ON HOW QUICKLY INCOMING MOISTURE ARRIVES. BASED ON OUR
LOCAL RED FLAG CRITERIA, WE ARE EXPECTED TO HIT RED FLAG
CONDITIONS (25+ MPH WINDS AND RH BELOW 30%) LATE THIS MORNING INTO
THIS EVENING. HOWEVER, FUELS REMAIN SUFFICIENTLY MOIST TO
PROHIBIT THE ISSUANCE OF A RED FLAG WARNING. NEVERTHELESS, FINE
FUELS SUCH AS LEAF LITTER AND TWIGS ARE SUFFICIENTLY DRY TO START
A FEW BRUSH FIRES.
RAIN WILL RETURN OVERNIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. A SHARP COLD FRONT WILL
DIVE SOUTHWARDS, AND TEMPERATURES WILL COOL FROM THE 50S DOWN INTO
THE 30S BY MIDDAY. WITH WIDESPREAD WETTING RAIN, FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS ARE NOT ANTICIPATED TO POSE ANY CONCERN ON WEDNESDAY.
