WESTERN NEW YORK FORECAST SUMMARY Forecast Discussion for BUF NWS Office
SYNOPSIS... Weak high pressure will support improved weather across the
western counties today...but showers will persist for areas east of Lake
Ontario. A wave of low pressure riding up along a slow moving frontal
boundary will then guarantee another unpleasant day across all of the
region for Friday in the form of widespread showers...if not a few hours of
steady rain. While fair dry weather will be featured for the upcoming
weekend...some nuisance showers will be possible Saturday afternoon.
