Buffalo Faces Wet, Windy Weather to End Cool, Dry Week

Buffalo, NY, is set to transition from a cool, dry week to a wet and windy period as a storm system approaches. According to the National Weather Service Buffalo, a robust Canadian high-pressure system will dominate the region until Wednesday. This will result in clear skies and seasonably cool temperatures.

Weather Conditions Ahead

  • Temperature Peaks: Highs will be in the mid to upper 40s.
  • Overnight Lows: Nighttime temperatures will drop into the upper 20s and low 30s, especially on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.

Thursday will mark a shift in weather patterns, as a developing low-pressure system is expected to approach from the west. This new system will introduce widespread rain and increase wind speeds across the region.

Rain and Wind Forecast

  • Rain Chances: Probability of rainfall will rise to 70–90% by Thursday night and into Friday.
  • High Temperatures: Expect highs reaching the upper 40s and lower 50s.

Forecasters indicate that strong winds will accompany the late-week storm, particularly affecting areas near Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. These winds may result in choppy waters and could disrupt travel plans.

Weekend Outlook

Following the storm’s passage, Buffalo will experience cooler and unsettled weather into the weekend. High temperatures are predicted to remain below normal for late October, continuing the trend of cool conditions.
