FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
219 PM EST THU MAR 5 2026
DISCUSSION
THOUGH WARMER TEMPERATURES OF RECENT HAVE ERODED SOME OF THE PRE-
EXISTING SNOWPACK, SNOW GENERALLY REMAINS PREVALENT ACROSS OUR
REGION. AN UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE TO BRING
CHANCES FOR ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS, SO
DESPITE THE EXPECTATION FOR A SIGNIFICANT WARM UP NEXT WEEK, SOILS
WILL CONTINUE TO REMAIN SATURATED. ADDITIONALLY, WINDS LOOK TO
GENERALLY REMAIN UNDER CRITERIA TO POSE ANY THREAT TO FIRE SPREAD.
THEREFORE, THERE IS NO THREAT TO FIRE SPREAD OVER THE NEXT SEVEN
DAYS.
