FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
236 AM EDT MON OCT 19 2026
DISCUSSION
THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN A PROLONGED STRETCH OF DRY WEATHER
THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY ACROSS EASTERN NY AND WESTERN NEW ENGLAND
AS HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN CONTROL. AFTER MORNING DEW AND PATCHY
FOG/MIST, MINIMUM RH VALUES THIS AFTERNOON DROP TO 30 TO 45% WITH
THE LOWEST VALUES IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN AREAS OF WESTERN NEW
ENGLAND AND THE NORTHERN/EASTERN CATSKILLS; HOWEVER, WINDS WILL
REMAIN LIGHT NEAR OR UNDER 5KTS. RH VALUES RECOVER TONIGHT
EXCEEDING 75% ACROSS THE REGION WITH DEW LIKELY AGAIN GIVEN
FAVORABLE RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS. NORTHERLY WINDS TOMORROW
INCREASE DURING PEAK HEATING HOURS BECOMING SUSTAINED 5-10KTS
WITH GUSTS UP TO 20-25KTS, STRONGEST IN THE NORTH-SOUTH ORIENTED
HUDSON VALLEY. HOWEVER, MINIMUM AFTERNOON RH VALUES AGAIN ONLY
DROP TO 30 TO 45% WHICH SHOULD REDUCE THE POTENTIAL FOR FIRE
SPREAD.
