Quiet weather will continue for most of Friday as an area of high
pressure over the Northeast and Eastern Canada slowly moves east. An
approaching area of low pressure from the Tennessee Valley will start
to increase POPs for Friday evening, with chance POPs across WNY.
The area of low pressure will continue to track northeast toward the
area and center over the western end of Lake Erie by Saturday
morning. The low will slowly track east before a secondary and
stronger area of low pressure develops Saturday evening off the coast
of NY/NJ. The coastal low will continue to strengthen as it tracks
northeast to the Gulf of Maine by Sunday night.

Likely POPs will be in place from Saturday morning through Sunday
afternoon. A heavy water laden snow looks likely now, but
temperatures will need to be monitored as any bump up in the
temperatures will mean more rain likely. Some rain will mix in for
Saturday afternoon across the lower elevations, but pure rain areas
as of right now looks to be limited as model guidance continues to
come in a bit cooler. Wrap around moisture will keep precipitation
going through Sunday night before tapering off on Monday to showery
coverage.

Wow that changed alot

Yep only 3 solid hits for BUF. It is really early though so changes are expected but definitely not encouraging for WNY. I do feel good having the Euro on our side for now even though it hasn’t been the most consistent as of late. If we lose the Euro then I’d be more nervous about getting anything of significance, but as of now I’m okay with how the models look this far out.
