FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
212 AM EDT FRI AUG 28 2026
DISCUSSION
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON THURSDAY
BROUGHT A WETTING RAINFALL TO MANY AREAS. AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM WILL BE POSSIBLE AGAIN TODAY, BUT MOST AREAS LOOK TO
STAY DRY WITH RH VALUES STAYING ABOVE 60 PERCENT WITH WEST TO
NORTHWEST WINDS AROUND 5 MPH.
DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED THIS WEEKEND, BUT RH VALUES WILL GENERALLY
BE ABOVE 50 PERCENT FOR MOST OF THE TIME WITH LIGHT WINDS. THE
THREAT FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL RETURN TO THE REGION ON
MONDAY AND WILL BE IN PLACE FOR SEVERAL DAYS FOR NEXT WEEK, SO
FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL LIKELY REMAIN ON THE LOW SIDE.
