ROCHESTER, N.Y. – The front that brought a few showers and some cooler air to the region for Thursday will park itself nearby and loiter for the next few days. This will keep our weather a little cool and unsettled into the weekend, but not too bad. The front will remain south of us on Friday, keeping most of the showers to the south. That being said, a few showers will sneak in later in the evening and overnight.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Wednesday’s sunshine was dulled just a little bit by a light haze from more wildfire smoke. We’ll continue to see some of that smoke into Thursday, but it’ll be less noticeable, simply because we’ll see more clouds around, especially in the morning. That is also when we’ll see our best chance of a brief passing shower. This is the result of a slow moving boundary moving in. We should clear things out somewhat into the afternoon, allowing for a little more sun and dry weather.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Our weather is fair and quiet following the stormier weather from Monday. The National Weather Service surveyed storm damage near Ellicottville, and confirmed a high end EF1 tornado is responsible for the damage in that area. The tornado had maximum winds of 110mphs. Meanwhile, our weather remains nice and quiet for the next few days. Wednesday will see a mostly sunny sky with temperatures starting in the 50s and ending near 80 degrees.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – We ended the work week on a cloudy note, with a few passing showers Friday night. But our cold front will clear the area, leaving us with fair weather and comfortable weather to start the weekend. Saturday will see the sky becoming mostly sunny. Sunday starts off with a good deal of sun, but clouds will tend to move back in by afternoon, with some showers arriving by evening. So, while we may not have a totally dry weekend (again), we’ll still see a good deal of nice weather.
