BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — There are just a handful of days left to spring, but that said, summer warmth has its sights set on Western New York before summer's astronomical arrival shortly before 11 p.m. on Friday. Temperatures will rise to close to 80 by mid-week. It might be a good idea to get the air conditioners installed, as our cool, comfortable mornings are going to come to an end for a bit.
A comfortable night sets up tonight with temperatures dropping into the lower 60s. Few showers possible near the state line.
Scattered pm t-storms are possible Tuesday. Unsettled afternoon chances of rain and isolated t-storms each day through Juneteenth where temperatures will be in the upper 70s.
As summer arrives, it'll sure feel like it. Temperatures rise into the mid-80s over the weekend. By next week WNY will soar into the upper 80s and flirting with 90, our first heat wave of the summer!
