472 FNUS51 KBUF 211434 FWFBUF Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York National Weather Service Buffalo NY 1033 AM EDT Fri Jun 21 2024 .DISCUSSION... While it will still be uncomfortably warm and humid through this weekend...a frontal boundary oscillating back and forth over our region will support enough cloud cover and some thunderstorm activity to suppress the dangerously high heat indices. Unfortunately...the daily thunderstorms will carry the risk of torrential downpours and even severe weather. Notably cooler and more comfortable conditions can then be expected next week...especially during the latter half.
