FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
301 AM EDT Mon Aug 18 2025

.DISCUSSION...
High pressure will build in from southeast Canada with
mostly sunny skies, cooler and less humid conditions today.  The
surface high will remain in control into Tuesday, as an upper level
disturbance and a low pressure system will bring the next chance of
showers by the mid week.  A drier air mass will build back in late
Thursday into the first half of the weekend, as temperatures trend
near normal for the second half of the week.
