Buffalo, NY — A slow-moving storm is expected to bring rain to the Buffalo area starting Friday night, with showers continuing into Saturday. Residents should be prepared for wet conditions, especially on roadways, where ponding is possible. Temperatures will dip following the rain, bringing cooler fall-like weather into next week.
According to the National Weather Service, an inch or more of rain could fall over the weekend, though widespread flooding isn’t expected. Still, motorists are urged to use caution during periods of heavy rain, which could create slippery conditions and localized pooling on streets.
Temperatures will begin to cool by Saturday, with highs dropping into the mid-60s. By Sunday, expect even chillier conditions with highs only in the low 60s, followed by continued cooler weather early next week. Sunshine will return by Monday, offering a brief reprieve from the rain.
Residents are advised to plan their weekend activities accordingly, keeping an eye on real-time weather updates and taking precautions while driving.
