A mostly dry Friday, then showers tonight and a soaking Saturday
Friday stays mostly cloudy, with a high near 62 early and temperatures falling to around 56 in the afternoon behind a cold front. Showers are likely tonight, at 70%, and Saturday brings rain at 100%, with a quarter to half an inch and a high near 53.
Good morning, Oswego. It was a clear, cool night: the airport in Fulton dropped to 46 degrees (first reached at 3:35 a.m.) and was 48, clear and calm at 7:20 a.m. Syracuse was 46, clear and calm at 7:30 a.m.
Alerts: As of 7:52 a.m. Friday, the Weather Service listed no watches, warnings or advisories for Oswego County. Elsewhere in New York, NWS Upton listed a Flood Advisory for southeastern Nassau and western Suffolk counties on Long Island until 9:15 a.m. Friday, for minor flooding from heavy rain in thunderstorms; NWS Upton's advisory says "Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads." On the water, neither the New York feed nor the Lake Ontario marine feed listed any alerts.
Today: Mostly cloudy, with a high near 62 early and temperatures falling to around 56 in the afternoon, and a southwest wind around 6 mph, according to the Weather Service. A 20% chance of rain showers after 2 p.m. My own blend of the forecast models has 61. Buffalo's forecasters expect the cold front to cross the area today, with scattered showers ahead of it.
Tonight: Rain showers likely, a 70% chance, with less than a tenth of an inch. Cloudy, with a low around 42 and a northwest wind of 2 to 8 mph.
Saturday: Rain showers, a 100% chance, with a quarter to half an inch. Cloudy, with a high near 53 and a northwest wind of 9 to 13 mph. My blend runs cooler, at 50. Buffalo's forecasters expect cool, moist air wrapping around the low to support lake-enhanced showers downwind of the lakes Saturday.
The week ahead: Showers continue Saturday night, at 100%, with a low around 40, and Sunday, at 80%, with a high near 55 and a west wind of 14 to 17 mph, gusting to 30 mph Sunday night. Monday is near 53, with showers likely before 1 p.m. at 70% and gusts to 29 mph, and Tuesday is partly sunny and near 57, with a 20% chance of showers. Buffalo's forecasters expect lake-enhanced showers east of both lakes on Sunday before more widespread rain arrives Sunday night. My blend has Sunday at 53.
