Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
1004 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

.DISCUSSION...
An unseasonably cool airmass for the end of August will allow for a
few more scattered showers east and southeast of Lake Ontario
through the first half of tonight. High pressure will then gradually
settle across the region through the long holiday weekend...bringing
dry weather and a day to day warming trend that will last into the
middle of next week.
