FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
344 PM EDT FRI APR 18 2025
DISCUSSION
SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM FOR THE
UPPER/MIDDLE HUDSON VALLEY AND CATSKILL ZONES SINCE RH VALUES
ARE LOWER THAN PREVIOUSLY FORECAST (25-35%), WHICH COMBINED WITH
INCREASING SOUTHERLY WIND GUSTS OF 20-30 MPH THIS AFTERNOON
RESULT IN A AN ELEVATED RISK OF FIRE SPREAD.
SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR LITCHFIELD
COUNTY, CT THROUGH 7 PM TODAY DUE TO INPUT FROM CT STATE FIRE
WEATHER OFFICIALS DUE TO LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES AROUND
25-35% AND WIND GUSTS OF 20-30 MPH.
SATURDAY WILL BE WARMER WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE
MID 70S TO LOWER 80S IN VALLEY AREAS, WITH A WEST-SOUTHWEST
WIND GUSTING 20-30 MPH AT TIMES. HOWEVER, LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
WILL ALSO BE INCREASING WITH MINIMUM RH VALUES OF 40-50%
EXPECTED. SUNDAY LOOKS COOLER, BUT ALSO MUCH DRIER WITH MINIMUM
RH VALUES OF 25-35% AND NORTHWEST WINDS GUSTING 20-30 MPH, SO
THERE IS AN INCREASED THREAT OF FIRE SPREAD AND CONDITIONS WILL
NEED TO BE MONITORED.
