Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
133 AM EDT Sat May 25 2024

.DISCUSSION...
While Saturday will not be a complete wash out...showers and gusty
thunderstorms will develop during the midday and afternoon in
response to a pair of fronts moving through the area. It will be
noticeably more humid as well. Weak high pressure will allow fair
weather to return later Saturday night with the finest weather of
the weekend slated for Sunday. A complex storm system over the Upper
Great Lakes will then support very unsettled weather for Memorial
Day...including the potential for drenching thunderstorms.
