Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
104 AM EST Sun Nov 9 2025

.DISCUSSION...
An area of low pressure will approach the area tonight. Besides a
few scattered light showers, mostly dry weather will continue this
evening, before much more unsettled weather then makes a quick
return later tonight and Sunday as the area of low pressure crosses
the area. Expect mainly rain south of Lake Ontario and a possible
wintry mix across the North Country eventually giving way to snow
Sunday afternoon and night as much colder air wraps in behind the
departing low. The much colder airmass will also eventually bring a
period of accumulating lake snows southeast and east of the lakes
Monday night and Tuesday.
