After a Saturday Peak...

the cooling which follows will be minor. On this Friday evening, signs still point to a record high being likely on Saturday with a SE downslope wind. It will be locally cooler along the Lk Ontario shore. On Sunday, an upper level low will drift slowly by to our south. Moisture and dynamics will be marginal, so we may see a few spotty showers, more likely closer to PA. Temps will be somewhat cooler, but remain above average into next Saturday. The operational GFS still points to a pattern change developing during next weekend, taking us back to an unsettled, chillier regime.

Warmup Looks More Impressive

A dry workweek, starting out chilly but becoming truly springlike on Wednesday. The typical cooling closer to Lk Erie & the Niag Rvr, however, will hold metro area, Grand Island, wrn Niag & NW Erie Co high temps back with a SW flow to the 50s on Wed & Thur. As you move further inland, afternoon temps will reach the mid/upper 60s on Wed, and some spots will make it into the 70s on Thursday. A backdoor cold front will allow temps to cool a little for next weekend.
