Burlington, VT – Burlington and the surrounding areas in Vermont are facing a 40-50% probability of above-normal temperatures and increased precipitation between August 18 and August 24, according to the latest 8-14 day weather outlook from the National Weather Service. Residents should prepare for unseasonably warm conditions, particularly in the western parts of the state, where temperatures are expected to be notably higher.
The forecast indicates that while some areas of Vermont may see near-normal precipitation levels, Burlington and regions to the west are likely to experience a significant uptick in rainfall during this period. This weather pattern could bring localized thunderstorms and a potential increase in humidity, adding to the discomfort of higher temperatures.
According to the National Weather Service, these conditions are driven by an overarching weather system that is expected to impact much of the eastern United States. As a result, Burlington residents are advised to stay informed about daily weather updates and prepare for both the heat and possible rain showers, particularly towards the end of the week.
