Weather Summary for Western and North Central New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
444 AM EDT Tue Apr 23 2024

High pressure that supplied us with beautiful weather on Monday is 
now drifting off the East coast. A strengthening southerly flow in 
its wake will now transport milder air and increased moisture into 
our region. This will lead to thickening clouds today with a slow 
moving frontal system promising to generate a quarter to a half inch 
of rain for us tonight into Wednesday morning. An expansive area of 
Canadian high pressure will then assure us of fair dry weather 
Thursday and Friday.
