ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Expect fantastic conditions for today. We start a little cooler than past mornings with temps in the upper 50s/low 60s, but we’ll rise to the low to mid 80s this afternoon. Humidity will be comfortable, and wind gusts will max out at a modest 10-15 MPH out of the west. Overnight temperatures will reach the mid 60s.
Humidity and wind builds through the morning tomorrow, then from noon to 6pm a cold front will move through, scraping up the heat and humidity and producing a line of gusty thunderstorms. Winds could reach up to 40 MPH as the storm passes by. 0.5″ to 1″ of rain is expected, but due to the fact that the storms won’t last too long, flood threat is relatively low. It’s still there, just not the MAIN concern. Skies will clear and temperatures will drop to the low 50s Sunday night after the storms.
Monday and Tuesday will see nice sunny skies, MUCH lower humidity, calmer winds, and comfortable temperatures in the upper 60s/low 70s. Chances for rain and perhaps more storms return for the second half of the week.
Stay tuned for updates on the forecast.
