FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
257 PM EDT MON APR 6 2026
DISCUSSION
WINDS THIS AFTERNOON WILL CONTINUE TO GUST TO 20-30
MPH, BUT MIN RH VALUES SHOULD ONLY DROP TO AROUND 35% WITH
ISOLATED LIGHT RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS, ESPECIALLY OVER THE HIGH
TERRAIN. RH VALUES TONIGHT RECOVER TO AROUND 80% OR HIGHER WITH
MORE WIDESPREAD SNOW SHOWERS TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW. LIGHT SNOWFALL
AMOUNTS TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW SHOULD PREVENT ANY WIDESPREAD FIRE
WEATHER CONCERNS, BUT LOCALIZED CONDITIONS FAVORABLE FOR FIRE
SPREAD ARE POSSIBLE IN THE MID HUDSON VALLEY AND WESTERN CT
TOMORROW AFTERNOON AS WE AREN'T EXPECTING MUCH PRECIP FOR THESE
AREAS, AND RH VALUES TOMORROW AFTERNOON THERE SHOULD DROP TO
AROUND 35% WITH WINDS AGAIN GUSTING TO 20-30 MPH.
NO PRECIP THEN EXPECTED THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. RH VALUES
WEDNESDAY DROP TO 20-30%, BUT WIND GUSTS <10 MPH SHOULD PREVENT
ANY FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS. BETTER CHANCE FOR FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS
IS THURSDAY, AS SOUTHERLY WIND GUSTS WILL BE AT 20-30 MPH WITH
MINIMUM AFTERNOON RH VALUES OF 25-35%. DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH
FUELS DRY OUT OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS, FIRE WEATHER SPSS MAY BE
NEEDED THURSDAY. LOWER CONFIDENCE IF FRIDAY WILL HAVE ANY FIRE
WEATHER CONCERNS SINCE AT THIS TIME WINDS LOOK LIGHTER AND
MINIMUM RH VALUES LOOK SLIGHTLY HIGHER COMPARED TO THURSDAY.
