Special Weather Statement in Albany County, New York

Issued by the National Weather Service and archived by Claims Pages
10/30/2026 9:15:00 AM (UTC) Urgency: Expected Severity: Moderate Certainty: Observed
10/30/2026 9:15:00 AM until 10/30/2026 7:00:00 PM
The combination of dry fuels, gusty northwest winds 25 to 35 mph, and minimum relative humidity values near 40 percent will lead to an elevated risk of fire spread across southern Connecticut during the late morning and afternoon hours today. Use extra caution if handling any potential ignition sources such as machinery or matches, and ensure to properly extinguish or dispose of cigarette butts. Any fires that ignite will have the potential to spread quickly. This forecast considers meteorological, fuel, and land conditions and has been developed in coordination with state fire and land management officials.
