.DISCUSSION...
Fair weather this evening will end briefly as a cold front with
showers and thunderstorms upon it crosses our region tonight and
through Sunday morning...with a few of these storms containing
strong gusty winds tonight. Storm activity will exit the Genesee
Valley and Finger Lakes region early Sunday afternoon and while a
few breaks in the clouds are possible a cool northwest flow will
maintain mostly cloudy skies through the night that may even yield a
few light, brief rain showers across upper terrain south of Lake
Ontario.
