Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
133 PM EDT Sun May 26 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Weak high pressure will GUARANTEE that we can anticipate delightful
weather for outdoor activities today. Unfortunately...conditions
will deteriorate tonight and particularly on Memorial Day itself. An
unusually strong storm system for this of year will track across the
Upper Great Lakes on Monday...pushing a pair of fronts through our
region in the process. This will result in fairly widespread showers
and likely some drenching...gusty thunderstorms as well.
