Burlington, Vt. – A stretch of nearly perfect late-summer weather will continue across Vermont and northern New York today, with valley fog early giving way to mostly sunny skies and comfortable humidity. Temperatures will warm into the mid-70s to low 80s, with the Champlain Valley seeing a few higher readings.
According to the National Weather Service in Burlington, a steady east to northeast breeze at 10 mph or less will keep conditions pleasant through Thursday, making it a standout summer day for outdoor plans across the region. Northern New York will also share in the sunshine, with similar temperatures and light winds.
Travelers heading south and east, however, should use caution. While Vermont skies remain calm, Hurricane Erin is generating strong surf and dangerous rip currents along the East Coast. The Weather Service urges anyone visiting Atlantic beaches to review safety guidance and avoid risky swimming.
Local agencies report no significant hazards across Vermont, though morning fog may reduce visibility along portions of I-89 and Route 7 before mid-morning. Drivers are advised to use caution until the fog clears.
This quiet pattern is expected to hold into the weekend, with only minor variations in temperature.
