Buffalo is starting Monday with mostly clear skies and temperatures in the upper 40s, but the afternoon should warm to around 64 degrees under mostly sunny skies. A west breeze will add a little fall bite, while the city stays dry as a weak front moves through the region.
Sunny Monday, Cloudier Evening
The National Weather Service expects west winds of 6 to 9 mph Monday, with clouds gradually increasing late in the day. Buffalo should fall to around 40 degrees Monday night under mostly cloudy skies, so outdoor plans after sunset will call for a warmer layer.
A few light showers are possible later Monday in parts of North-Central New York, but the Buffalo area is expected to remain largely dry. No land watches, warnings or advisories are posted for the city.
Tuesday Brings A Sharper Chill
Tuesday will be sunny but cooler, with a high near 56 and northeast winds around 6 mph. The night turns partly cloudy with a low near 39, making for a distinctly brisk start to Wednesday.
Temperatures rebound Wednesday, when Buffalo could reach 66 degrees under partly sunny skies. Thursday stays mild near 65, though southwest winds may gust as high as 23 mph, giving leaves and lightweight Halloween decorations a little extra work to do.
Late-Week Showers, Mostly Dry Weekend
The latest outlook is a substantive update from Hoodline's weekend forecast, with rain now appearing as the main wrinkle late Thursday. Showers could develop after 8 p.m. Thursday and linger into Friday morning, with a 40% chance before skies turn partly sunny and temperatures reach about 65.
Saturday currently looks mostly sunny with a high near 64, while Sunday should reach around 65 with mostly cloudy skies and a slight chance of showers after 7 a.m. For most of the week, the forecast remains more jacket-weather than umbrella-weather, with the best chance of rain arriving Thursday night into Friday morning.
