FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR WESTERN NEW YORK

1233 PM EST TUE NOV 19 2024
DISCUSSION
A WEDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDING SOUTH FROM QUEBEC WILL MAINTAIN
FAIR DRY WEATHER ACROSS THE VAST MAJORITY OF OUR REGION TODAY, BUT A
WARM FRONT LURKING OVER NORTHEAST OHIO COULD SUPPORT A SHOWER OR TWO
FOR PARTS OF THE SOUTHERN TIER LATE TODAY AND THIS EVENING.
CONDITIONS WILL THEN SIGNIFICANTLY DETERIORATE LATER WEDNESDAY
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK, AS A LARGE COMPLEX STORM SYSTEM WILL
SLOWLY PUSH ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES TO NEW ENGLAND. THIS WILL RESULT
IN A SOAKING RAIN WEDNESDAY NIGHT, THEN A PROLONGED PERIOD OF
MISERABLE WEATHER INTO THE WEEKEND THAT WILL INCLUDE A MIX OF RAIN
AND WET SNOW. THE FIRST ACCUMULATING SNOW OF THE SEASON WILL BE
POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN.
