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

.DISCUSSION...
While today will start off with some low clouds and fog in many
areas...weak high pressure will GUARANTEE that we can anticipate
delightful weather during the afternoon for outdoor activities.
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.
