BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — After being in the 60s on Saturday, Buffalo struggled to reach 40 degrees for a top temperature on Sunday. At least we were able to enjoy brilliant sunshine from hilltop to lakeshore throughout the day, and at least we didn't have strong winds with which to contend.
Tonight brings high clouds and starlight. The winds will start to shift into the south transporting milder air back into Western NY. Temperatures will drop back into the 30s by morning.
Winds will again pick up heading into Monday ahead of a cold front. Expect it to be warmer though with highs back to near 60 away from Lake Erie. Clouds will thicken and lower with showers returning by evening.
That same front will likely lurk to our south on Tuesday providing a focus for showers during the day and night. It also will be mean a wide range in temperatures for the day with the mercury struggling to reach 50 for highs north of the front, while areas in the Southern Tier see temperatures climbing into the 60s.
Wednesday looks like the warmest day of the bunch as we make our way into the upper 60s to near 70, but with a few showers and even a couple of strong thunderstorms
.
Cooler air returns for the end of the week, but it will be a seasonable caliber of cool air. Right now, all looks well weatherwise for the Easter weekend!
