Special Weather Statement issued May 2 at 2:25PM EDT by NWS Albany NY
The combination of drying fine fuels, northwest wind gusts between 25 and 30 mph, and relative humidity values between 25 and 35 percent will contribute to an elevated risk of fire spread Sunday afternoon for portions of the mid and upper Hudson Valley, eastern Catskills, Taconics and Greater Capital District regions in eastern New York. As a reminder, the annual statewide burn ban remains in effect until May 14. No burn permits are issued. Use extra caution if handling any potential ignition sources such as machinery or matches and ensure to properly extinguish or dispose of cigarette butts. Please refer to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation website for more information on burn restrictions.

About
Moreau Lake State Park encompasses 6,250 acres of diverse terrain in Saratoga County, featuring hardwood forests, pine stands, and rocky ridges surrounding a scenic lake. The campground is known for its quiet, wooded sites spread across seven loops (A-G) plus dedicated group camping areas, making it one of New York's most popular camping destinations. The park offers extensive recreational opportunities year-round. During camping season, visitors enjoy a sandy swimming beach with boat rentals (kayaks, rowboats, paddleboards), a nature center with educational programs, and over 40 miles of hiking trails. The park transitions to winter recreation with cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice fishing, and ice skating. Different camping loops operate on varying schedules, with Loop A and the White Birch Cabin Loop offering the longest season (May through November). The campground provides modern amenities including comfort stations, showers in all loops, and a dump station. The park also includes Big Bend Preserve, an 860-acre area along the Hudson River with 6 miles of gentle trails through barrens, open forest, and wetlands, home to over 100 documented bird species. Seven ADA-accessible campsites are available for visitors with disabilities. The park's proximity to Saratoga Springs and Lake George makes it an ideal base for exploring the Adirondack region.
