National Weather Service Buffalo NY
133 PM EDT Fri Jul 5 2024

.DISCUSSION...
A warm front will remain draped across our region today, with a few
showers and thunderstorms, becoming likely this evening as
additional energy aloft arrives. A weak cold front will cross the
region early Saturday, resulting in afternoon temperatures a degree
or two cooler, yet still moderately humid. High pressure crossing
the region later Saturday and through the remainder of the weekend
will promote fair weather.
