.DISCUSSION...
RH values will rise tonight to 70 to 100 percent over the
forecast area with an excellent recovery with a clipper low
approaching and snow showers north of I-90. The min RH values
will be 25-35% in the mid Hudson Valley and 35-60% across the
rest of the area. West winds will be mainly 10-15 mph into the
early afternoon, and the decrease. Max gusts will be 20-25 mph
with a few localized higher values in the morning into the
early afternoon in most areas.
The relative humidity values increase to 70-90 percent Tuesday
morning. Conditions look more favorable for elevated fire
weather concerns by Tuesday afternoon as southerly wind gusts
increase to 20-30 mph and minimum RH values range 35-45% and will
be more widespread than the previous few days. Temperatures
will also be warmer Tuesday, with highs in the lower to mid 60s
for much of the Hudson Valley. Widespread appreciable
precipitation does not look like it will occur until late in the
weekend.
