Hilltop low clouds and fog will dissipate tonight behind a
recently departed cold front. High pressure sliding across the

cloudiness and afternoon temperatures just a few degrees below
normal. Clear skies Saturday evening, especially east of Lake
Ontario will allow for temperatures to cool into the upper 20s
east of Lake Erie, and upper teens east of Lake Ontario before
clouds thicken from the west, temperatures moderate, and light
precipitation reaches western New York Sunday morning.
