NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
308 AM EDT SAT MAR 14 2026
DISCUSSION
TODAY, WEST WIND GUSTS OF 35-50 MPH EXPECTED, BUT
RH VALUES SHOULD GENERALLY REMAIN ABOVE 40%. ONE EXCEPTION IS
ACROSS THE MID HUDSON VALLEY WHERE RH VALUES THIS AFTERNOON COULD
DROP TO 35-40%. SUNDAY, RH VALUES OF 30-40% EXPECTED IN THE
AFTERNOON OUTSIDE OF THE ADIRONDACKS, BUT WINDS WILL BE LIGHTER
THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY. WIND GUSTS DO INCREASE TO 20-25 MPH
SUNDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING, BUT NOT UNTIL RH VALUES BEGIN TO
RECOVER, SO NOT EXPECTING MUCH OVERLAP BETWEEN THE GUSTY WINDS AND
LOWER RH.
WIDESPREAD WETTING RAIN EXPECTED SUNDAY NIGHT AND AGAIN
MONDAY EVENING/NIGHT. SO, WHILE MONDAY AND TUESDAY LOOK QUITE
WINDY, THE RAIN SHOULD PREVENT ANY WIDESPREAD FIRE WEATHER
CONCERNS. DRY WEATHER EXPECTED TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NEXT WEEK,
BUT WINDS ALSO LOOK TO REMAIN ON THE LIGHTER SIDE.
