Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York

.DISCUSSION...
While the majority of today will be rain free...a relatively deep
storm system moving out of Lower Michigan will push a pair of
frontal systems through our area that will result in several rounds
of showers and drenching thunderstorms. Some storms may have the
potential to generate damaging wind gusts...mainly across the Finger
Lakes and Eastern Lake Ontario regions. The unsettled will persist
into mid week...while there is high confidence that it will become
progressively cooler.
