Seems like storms there every time I check the radar over the last week. Let’s see how the lake manages to shred anything here. Also…apologies to Sizzle Cuse but BUF has had quite the run of highest temps in the state lately. 80 right now, highest in the state I think. Interesting how the lake has managed to block all rain/storms here in this recent hot stretch but has done nothing to cool temps at BUF. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 After this, the remnants of Ida will track across the mid-Atlantic states around Wednesday. Model guidance continues to show strong high pressure to our north will keep the tropical remnants to the south of the forecast area, but there will be a very sharp gradient with significant rainfall possible just south of the NY/PA state line. There`s little doubt that most of the area will remain rain- free, with a small chance the Western Southern Tier will get clipped by some rain Wednesday. Otherwise, there will be a cool northeasterly flow due to the pressure gradient between the strong high pressure system and the remnant low passing to our south and east. High temperatures will only range from the upper 60s to lower 70s on Wednesday. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... An upper level trough across New England on Thursday will slide east with a ridge building across the lower Great Lakes through Friday. Meanwhile, surface high pressure will drift east across the area which will provide a continuation of dry weather. It will be cooler, but generally comfortable, with highs ranging from the upper 60s to mid 70s Thursday and Friday. Over the weekend, a shortwave will dig across Ontario province with a series of weak frontal boundaries potentially crossing the region. There`s some model disagreement if there will be a warm frontal passage ahead of a cold front or just a cold front. Either way, Saturday should be mainly rain-free with just a small chance for showers Saturday night and Sunday. It will be slightly warmer, with highs in the 70s over the weekend. There`s some potential it could be 5 degrees warmer (or cooler) than forecast depending on the progression of the warm front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Hopefully the backbone of summer is BROKEN....and we are done with days and days of Mid 80s to lower 90s. Sure, we will most likely have some occasional days of 80s, but hoping the next week of 70s is the start of journey into Fall. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNash Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 1 hour ago, SouthBuffaloSteve said: Here it comes… We had a nice downpour for 15-20 minutes. My Tempest estimates that 0.45 inches of rain fell between midnight and 12:45, almost all of it between 12:10 and 12:30. Some decent lightning as well. Not long lived, but much better than the vanishing storms of the last few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the least - I’m in Buffalo, a stones’ throw from South Campus. We are in the lake shadow, and have missed most of the rain this summer.

wolfie09 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Going to feel extremely pleasant overnight compared to what we have been going through.. NWS going a little warmer than this (low 50s) but I'll take it either way lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted August 30, 2021 Author Share Posted August 30, 2021 I feel like this summer definitely felt warm, not as warm as last year but certainly not average. June was quite warm and while July was below average its our warmest month on average, and August was a scorcher. While high temps were not overly above average, overnight lows were very high all summer and humidity levels were higher than normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I kept statistics to back it up, but this summer definitely felt more hot, muggy, and wet than any summer I can recall in our area. It seems like if it wasn’t raining (often heavy), it was 80s-90s and super humid. Ironically, it was in the low 70s and cloudy both Saturday and Sunday and it felt great. Still humid but we were finally able to play some outside games at parties without misery. I can’t wait for the cooler and drier air this weekend! Looking forward to fall-like weather and will probably have a bonfire to celebrate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so glad to see the end of it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
