Wed will be bright & cool, with a bit of a wind chill, but temps will moderate back into the 50s on Thursday. A storm pulling up toward the Ohio Valley will bring periods of rain into WNY before Friday AM and into Friday. It currently appears the weekend will be mainly dry, with temperatures moderating back up on Sunday into a somewhat unsettled pattern early next week--although it will be seasonably mild. The peak gust at the NWS today was 47 mph, but the WeatherWatch 4 Neighborhood WeatherNet sites registered gusts to over 50 mph at quite a few locations in Niagara, Orleans, and Genesee counties, with the lightest winds to the SE of the metro area.<br /><br />This was an Advisory--not a High Wind--event, with little in the way of damage. As we've pointed out many times, High Winds by meteorological standards produce widespread property damage.Don Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14976378564081462697noreply@blogger.com
