ROCHESTER, NY (WROC) – The warm air is finally out and while we are still warmer than average, we will not get to 90 degrees. There will be a few scattered rain showers to the south of the region across the Southern Tier, but it is very unlikely that any of those showers migrate northward. The overnight lows have been very warm this week and we finally get a break the next few days with lows falling into the 60s.
