Burlington, VT – Clouds will linger across Vermont this morning before clearing out by evening, setting the stage for a significant heat-up on Monday.
According to the National Weather Service in Burlington, Sunday’s highs will range from the mid-70s to low 80s under mostly cloudy skies. Skies are expected to clear later today, allowing for a sharp rise in temperatures overnight and into Monday. The agency warns that hot weather will return with highs climbing into the upper 80s and low 90s.
Cities like Montpelier, St. Johnsbury, and Burlington will experience relatively mild conditions today, but residents should prepare for much warmer weather tomorrow. With humidity levels also expected to rise, those without air conditioning should consider cooling centers or public spaces.
Hydration, limiting outdoor activity during peak afternoon hours, and checking in on elderly neighbors are all encouraged as Vermont enters a brief but intense early-summer heatwave.
Temperatures are likely to remain above average through midweek, with additional advisories possible if heat indices rise further.
