National Weather Service Buffalo NY
404 AM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

.DISCUSSION...
A passing cold front will continue to cross western and and north
central New York early this morning, supporting a line of scattered
showers. In the wake of the front, a few widely scattered lake
effect rain showers will linger today southeast of the Lakes,
especially Lake Ontario. Additionally, the coolest airmass since the
start of summer will arrive today and support temperatures to be
well below average. Then for the holiday weekend, expect dry weather
and a warming trend.
