Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
202 AM EDT Wed Jul 9 2025

...Mainly Dry Today, Numerous Showers and Thunderstorms Thursday...

.DISCUSSION...

With high pressure centered just north of the area, very little
precipitation is expected today, although an isolated shower or
thunderstorm in eastern Vermont and possibly over the higher
terrain is possible. On Thursday, numerous showers and
thunderstorms are expected to develop from noon through the
afternoon, but the scattered nature of the activity does not
guarantee a widespread wetting rainfall. Winds will be light
through the period with very good RH recovery during the overnight
hours.
