FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
222 PM EDT SUN OCT 18 2026
DISCUSSION
MOST AREAS HAVE SEEN A HALF INCH TO INCH OF RAINFALL OVER THE PAST
FEW DAYS. ALTHOUGH SOME PARTS OF THE AREA ARE STILL IN D0
(ABNORMALLY DRY), MOST OF THE REGION HAS NO DROUGHT STATUS
ACCORDING TO THE LATEST US DROUGHT MONITOR. LOOKING AHEAD, A DRY
STRETCH IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEK.
DAYTIME TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY BE CLOSE TO NORMAL IN THE 50S TO
LOW 60S, WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS MAINLY ON THE COOL SIDE IN THE 30S.
THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEK, RH VALUES WILL BE AS LOW AS 35
TO 45 PERCENT DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. HOWEVER, THEY SHOULD
RECOVER ABOVE 80 PERCENT EACH NIGHT WITH DEW AND FROST FORMATION.
MAINLY LIGHT WINDS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. NORTHEAST
WINDS COULD GET LOCALLY BREEZY (UP TO 25 MPH) TOWARDS MID-WEEK FOR FAR
SOUTHEASTERN AREAS, BUT THIS WILL DEPEND ON THE TRACK OF A NOR'EASTER.
AT THIS POINT, THE NEXT POTENTIAL FOR A WIDESPREAD RAINFALL IS AT LEAST
A WEEK AWAY.
