Wrap up outdoor plans by 3pm today. Rain is a SURE BET. Scattered thunderstorms may become strong to severe, especially for S.Tier. High in mid 70s, then temps plummet tonight. Sunday: chilly, mostly cloudy. A lot of dry time, spotty showers arrive PM. Some wintry mix. ~O'Neill

Widespread showers and thunderstorms are expected ahead of a cold front, bringing an elevated threat of severe weather across Western New York this afternoon through this evening. Due to the saturated ground, thunderstorms may result in ponding and isolated flash flooding.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms to arrive between 5 PM and 10 PM. The main risk of severe weather will lie across the Southern Tier, well south of I-90. Expect the damaging wind gusts as the primary threat, though a tornado can't be ruled out.

Precipitation has varied across our region this winter. Areas that need the precipitation include the Genesee Valley where moderate drought conditions persist. The upper ground may be soggy now, but without deep ground moisture vegetation can quickly dry out later this Spring.

A nor'easter will advance up the Atlantic coastline this weekend, spreading light snow across WNY, and perhaps east of Lake Ontario. Greater snow totals are expected just to our south and east and if this storm tracks a little closer us, greater chances for 4 inches will occur.
