Buffalo, N.Y. – Western New Yorkers will see a stretch of warm, dry weather as fall-like sunshine dominates the region into midweek. Commuters should prepare for potential road glare on I-90 and Route 33 during peak travel hours, especially as the sun sits low on the horizon in the mornings.
According to the National Weather Service, Buffalo will warm to 77 degrees Sunday under full sun, with calm winds shifting northwest by the afternoon. Nights will stay cool, dropping into the upper 50s, offering comfortable sleeping weather but raising the risk of patchy morning fog in valleys and along the Lake Erie shoreline.
Monday and Tuesday bring near-perfect conditions, with highs close to 80 and mostly clear skies. Winds stay light, making for favorable boating conditions on Lake Erie. However, local officials urge drivers to keep sunglasses handy and watch for sudden glare when traveling eastbound during the morning rush.
Air quality remains stable, and with dry skies, outdoor plans—including Bills tailgates and early fall festivals—face no weather disruptions. Residents are encouraged to hydrate during afternoon highs near 81 by Tuesday, as temperatures climb slightly above seasonal averages.
This warm stretch holds through Wednesday, but forecasters caution a late-week pattern shift could bring cooler air and scattered showers. Updates are expected as the system develops.
