BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — We enjoyed a good supply of sun on Sunday, but also had to deal with the heat and humidity. Tonight will be mild, and muggy, but quiet. A cold front will approach later Monday with scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some of the thunderstorms could prove to be severe, so stay weather aware throughout the day. The main threat from any thunderstorm would come from strong and gusty winds, along with heavy rainfall. A drop in humidity will ensue for Tuesda and Wednesday with temperatures returning to levels that are below average for August. The humidity will build again by the end of the week. In the meantime, while we enjoy a cool down, in the Southeast and in Florida, Debby is making landfall as a Category 1 hurricane on the Florida Gulf Coast. Excessive rainfall will be widespread through much of the Southeast. The cold front that heads our way ensures that the moisture associated with Debby will never reach Western New York. That said, the storm poses multiple hazards for Florida's Gulf Coast, and for much of the Southeast, as it slowly makes its way, off the Atlantic coast.
