WESTERN NEW YORK FORECAST SUMMARY Forecast Discussion for BUF NWS Office
SYNOPSIS... High pressure that provided dry weather on Monday will drift
off the East Coast through this evening. A strengthening southerly flow in
its wake has helped boost temperatures back above average, but has also
brought increased moisture into our region. Clouds will continue to thicken
and lower from west to east through the afternoon ahead of a slow moving
frontal system approaching from the upper Great Lakes. This system will
generate a quarter to a half inch of rain for us tonight into Wednesday
morning with chilly temperatures on Wednesday. An expansive area of
Canadian high pressure will then assure us of fair dry weather Thursday and
Friday, before chances for some showers return this weekend. Temperatures
remain chilly on Thursday, followed by day-to-day warming with readings
soaring to well above normal levels by the second half of the weekend.
