Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
433 AM EDT Sat Jun 22 2024

.DISCUSSION...
More comfortable conditions are on the horizon however, we`ll have
to endure a couple of more days of warm and humid weather.  Unlike
the days earlier this week with dangerously high heat indices, an
oscillating frontal boundary will support enough cloud cover and
thunderstorm activity to dampen the heat. However with these
thunderstorms, there will be the risk of torrential downpours and
severe weather.
