WESTERN NEW YORK FORECAST SUMMARY Forecast Discussion for BUF NWS Office
SYNOPSIS... Canadian high pressure centered over eastern New York and
western New England will slide east to the New England coastline
today...and will provide us with a fine spring day to close out the work
week. After a chilly start...temperatures will quickly rebound into the
upper 50s and 60s as a return flow of milder air develops around the
departing high. The warming trend will then continue over the weekend and
into early next week...resulting in late spring to summerlike warmth
engulfing our region both Sunday and Monday. While there will also be a few
showers and thunderstorms around, particularly during Saturday, a fair
amount of dry time can also be expected. A cold front will then bring our
next chance for more widespread showers and a few thunderstorms as it
crosses our region Monday night and Tuesday.
