Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
133 PM EDT Fri Sep 20 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Little by little...our prolonged stretch of outstanding weather will
come to an end. A vigorous mid level disturbance will dive across
the region on Saturday to generate some showers and thunderstorms
over the western counties...then after a fine day on Sunday...a wavy
frontal boundary will set up over our area to support scattered
showers and potentially some thunderstorms through much of the
upcoming week. The change to unsettled weather will be accompanied
by cooler...more seasonable conditions.
