BuffaloWeather Posted August 30, 2021 Author Share Posted August 30, 2021 We're extremely close to finishing out this August as the warmest on record in Buffalo. If it happens, 3 of the warmest on record will have been recorded in just the past 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I will always remember about this summer. It has not been as hot here as other areas of upstate but it's all swamp, all the time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely over mowing and mowing and mowing. Amazing the difference here in the other end of the state. Nonstop watering here. Other than a couple week reprieve in July it’s been bone dry here.

Currently 77 degrees and still high dew point after the “cold front” passed this afternoon. With temps ranging from about 75 to 84 here since last midnight we should be in good shape to break the record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember people surfing back in Nov 2014 while feet of snow were happening inland. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 It didn't feel that warm today but was still 83/71 which is 9 degrees above normal. I think we have a good chance to break the all time August record tomorrow. Normal right now is 77/60, cooler than I thought it would be. We've had such warm August recently that I forgot what normal is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not here. It can be a rain-cooled day and the second the sun comes from behind the clouds, the temp skyrockets like 10 degrees in Sizzlecuse.

wolfie09 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 We are going to finish this month above average in rainfall at 5.70", it could of been worse if we didn't miss the bulk of Fred just to the south..Last month we finished with 11.44", so just over 17" the last two months.. Luckily we will dodge a bullet with ida which has the potential to dump 4"-8" over portions of PA/NJ/NYC/SE NY and SNE..We haven't even reached the "rainy season" yet as according to NOAA 3 out of the 4 wettest months for pulaski are Oct/Nov and December, obviously hoping December is more white than wet lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like that's the case for all of Upstate with the colder air over the lakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 For the most part Yes, especially east of Ontario..But it depends on location.. For example Syracuse airport wettest month is OCT but the next 5 are summer and spring months, complete opposite of eastern Ontario region.. Obviously N/NW flow tends to have less liquid and higher ratios which explains some of it..But yeah we tend to get more organized rain systems and LER once fall sets in.. This is pretty much my go to site these days lol https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/us-climate-normals/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 BUF hit 81, pretty much guarantees the all time August record. Last July was the all time July record and now the all time August record. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Today was a winner in my book.. Anytime the RF is right around the surface temp it's a good day lol We did briefly manage 78° earlier this afternoon..A little breeze has kicked in as well, gusting 10-15mph at times.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Mainly dry weather is then expected to continue through the remainder of the period as high pressure remains in control. A secondary (dry) cold front will push south through the area on Thursday, bringing a reinforcing shot of even cooler and drier air (refreshing) to our region. Cool enough that it may even give the feel of a little taste of early fall. A weak, moisture starved warm front will approach/move into the area Friday night bringing slightly warmer and more humid air back in across the area. Otherwise, daytime highs Thursday and Friday will generally range from the upper 60s across the higher terrain to the lower and mid 70s elsewhere. Temperatures Wednesday, Thursday and Friday night will be very comfortable with lows generally ranging from the upper 40s to the lower 50s, with some mid 50s closer to the lake shores. Saturday will probably remain rain-free with a mid level ridge axis across our area forecast to move eastward across New England. After this, it will be a relatively cool and showery pattern with model consensus digging an upper level trough across the lower Great Lakes Sunday through Tuesday. This will support a series of weak systems which will move through the area. Also, the air aloft will be cool enough (around +10C) to support some lake enhancement at times. Raised model PoPs in lake enhanced regions, with the most widespread showers (and possibly a thunderstorm) expected to be during the afternoon hours on Sunday and Monday. High temperatures will be in the 70s on Saturday and then will range from the upper 60s to mid 70s Sunday through Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted September 1, 2021 Author Share Posted September 1, 2021 BUF finished at 75.7 for August breaking the record in 2016 by .1 degrees! ROC finished at 73.8 degrees, almost 2 degrees cooler. I believe Lake Eries warm temp kept Buffalo warm overnight and led to the massive difference in temps between locations. Watertown was 71.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
