Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western New York
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
204 PM EDT Fri Jul 4 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Expansive high pressure will settle directly across our area
today...resulting in plentiful sunshine and comfortable conditions
for the Independence Day holiday. The high will then slide off the
mid-Atlantic coastline through the weekend...with a southwesterly
flow on its backside allowing heat and humidity levels to build
again...though mainly dry weather will continue through Sunday. A
cold front will then slowly move south across the region and bring
renewed chances for showers and thunderstorms on Monday.
