Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York

133 PM EDT Fri May 10 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Unfortunately...cool and generally unsettled weather will remain in
place through the weekend. Thats not to say that the next couple of
days will be a washout...as there will be frequent rainfree periods
as well. Daytime temperatures this weekend will be a solid 5 to 8
degrees BELOW typical mid May levels. While the mercury will TRY to
get back towards normal for the first half of next week...there
will still be a fair amount of showers around.
