A warm and windy start to our Monday will turn colder, much colder as the day progresses across Western New York. We will go from a well-above-average temperature to well below average for this time of year in less than 24 hours.

Massive Temperature Drop On The Way For Western New York

This morning's temperature of 59 will be long gone by the ride home this afternoon as a major cold front is set to sweep across Western New York. We are looking at a drop in our temperature by almost 30 degrees in 12 hours.


On top of that cool down, we are looking at rain turning into snow tonight and overnight into Tuesday. Several inches are expected with widespread dusting of snow on tap for all of Western New York.
