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

.DISCUSSION...
Showers and some gusty thunderstorms will be possible today in
response to a pair of fronts moving through the area. Weak high
pressure will then allow fair weather to return later tonight with
the finest weather of the weekend slated for Sunday. Looking at the
end of the long Memorial Day weekend...a complex storm system over
the Upper Great Lakes will support very unsettled weather for
Monday...including the potential for drenching thunderstorms.
