Warm and Muggy Weekend On Tap For The Weekend

You will want to enjoy today's weather because things will start to warm up and get muggy across Western New York. Today we are looking at mostly sunny skies with a high near 75, when we will see the humidity reach "muggy" conditions on Saturday and Sunday and into next week.

Here is a look at the 7 Day forecast from the National Weather Service in Buffalo

Friday - Sunny with a high near 75
Saturday - Mostly sunny and humid with a high of 78
Sunday - Sunny and warm with a high near 83
Monday - Mostly sunny and muggy with a high near 88
Tuesday - Sunny with a chance to hit 90 for the 1st time this year
Wednesday - Mix of sun and clouds with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms. High near 88
Thursday - Sunny and Hot with a high temperature near 93

On average, we only get 2-4 days a year where the temperatures reach 90 degrees or more in Buffalo. Having Lake Erie right next to the city helps keep the city and the surrounding areas cooler than further away from the lake.

The last time we hit 90 degrees or warmer in Buffalo was back on August 12th of 2025.
