"We're really encouraging people to take it slow if they have any travel, especially in southern Vermont, maybe try and do that on Wednesday rather than Thursday," says Rebecca Duell with the National Weather Service in Burlington.

The Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation has ordered all fire wardens to stop issuing burn permits until Nov. 11. Dry weather, high winds and an abundance of dry leaves are factors that have increased the risk of wildfires throughout the state.

The National Weather Service says a few inches of snow are possible at elevations of 1,500 feet and above. In addition, Killington has been firing up its snowmaking guns this week.

A Vermont forest health expert says leaf peepers can expect vibrant peak foliage from late September into early October.

There’s a high probability this fall will be warmer and wetter than normal, according to a prediction from the National Weather Service’s Climate Prediction Center.

More than 24,000 Vermonters remained without power Saturday morning due to post-tropical cyclone Debby.

The Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium's Eye on the Sky is forecasting that tropical depression Debby will bring heavy downpours and the threat of flash flooding to the region Friday into Saturday.

Currently, the National Weather Service forecasts that central and northern Vermont, particularly the Champlain Valley, could see the most rainfall on Friday night into Saturday morning. Some areas could experience flooding.

Showers and embedded thunderstorms are forecast to arrive Wednesday afternoon and evening. They may include torrential downpours that could lead to more flash flooding.

Vermont is experiencing a stretch of unusually hot and humid weather that forecasters said could be interspersed with the occasional “normal summer thunderstorm," which shouldn’t cause alarm.
