FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
200 PM EST FRI MAR 6 2026
DISCUSSION
A SNOWPACK PERSISTS ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION, PARTICULARLY ACROSS
HIGHER TERRAIN REGIONS. WARMER TEMPERATURES HAVE BEGUN TO ERODE
THE PRE-EXISTING SNOWPACK, BUT THIS HAS CONTRIBUTED TO
SIGNIFICANTLY MOISTENING SOILS AND FUELS. A WARM UP IS STILL
ANTICIPATED BEGINNING THIS WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK, BUT
ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR RAIN, ADDITIONAL SNOWMELT, AND LIGHT WINDS
WILL CONTINUE TO MITIGATE FIRE SPREAD OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS.
