Weather Summary for Western and North Central New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
1020 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

Lingering clouds across the Southern Tier will clear out from 
north to south overnight, with clear and cold conditions 
settling into the region. An expansive area of Canadian high 
pressure will then assure us of fair, dry weather Thursday 
through Friday. While some showers will be likely this coming 
weekend, especially on Saturday, a good amount of dry time will 
be built in. Looking further down the road, we can look forward 
to a summer-like warm up Sunday and Monday with the mercury 
surging well into the 70s and even a few spots into the 80s.
