FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
235 PM EDT WED OCT 7 2026
DISCUSSION
POTENTIAL IS LOW FOR ANY FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS OVER
THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. TODAY AND TOMORROW WILL FEATURE WIND GUSTS
UP TO AROUND 25 MPH (FROM THE SOUTH TODAY AND WEST TOMORROW).
WHILE IT HAS BEEN DRY ACROSS THE REGION RECENTLY, MIN RH VALUES
BOTH DAYS ARE FORTUNATELY EXPECTED TO LARGELY REMAIN >40%,
ALTHOUGH SOME LOCALIZED POCKETS OF 35-40% RH ARE POSSIBLE IN THE
HIGH TERRAIN TODAY AND IN THE MID HUDSON VALLEY TOMORROW.
FRIDAY, WINDS COULD STILL GUST TO 15-20 MPH, ESPECIALLY THROUGH
EARLY AFTERNOON, BUT WINDS DIMINISH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS OVERHEAD. RH AGAIN MAINLY >40%, EXCEPT 35-40% IN
THE MID HUDSON VALLEY. FORTUNATELY, WIND GUSTS LOOK RELATIVELY
LIGHTER THERE (GUSTS ONLY 10-15 MPH). SATURDAY AND SUNDAY WILL SEE
WING GUSTS GENERALLY <10-15 MPH AND RH >40-50%. NEXT CHANCE FOR
ANY APPRECIABLE RAINFALL LOOKS TO BE LATE SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK.
