Burlington, Vt. – Vermont is in for another stretch of clear skies, with only southern parts of the state seeing a few high clouds later this afternoon and evening. The clouds are tied to Tropical Storm Imelda, which remains well to the south and will not bring rain or severe impacts to the region.
According to the National Weather Service in Burlington, cirrus clouds drifting northward from the system may dim sunshine in Bennington and Windham counties before sunset, but the rest of Vermont should stay bright. Temperatures remain seasonable, and no precipitation is expected statewide.
Drivers heading south into Massachusetts or Connecticut could encounter thicker cloud cover, but within Vermont, roads, airports, and outdoor events are expected to run without weather disruption. Emergency managers report no advisories, and utilities do not anticipate storm-related outages.
Residents are encouraged to take advantage of the dry spell for outdoor work or recreation, with comfortable air expected to last through the weekend.
Forecasters say Vermont’s next chance of unsettled weather does not arrive until early next week, keeping the Green Mountain State under calm and sunny skies for several more days.
