Summer turns up the heat in WNY
The summer vacation season will be closing with a blast of heat.
Temperatures will peak in the upper 80s to around 90 degrees across Western New York on Monday, according to the Buffalo office of the National Weather Service.
Buffalo itself is expected to hit 87 degrees, while Niagara Falls and Dunkirk have predicted highs of 88.
And temperatures are likely to be even higher the following three days. Buffalo and Niagara Falls are expected to reach the 90s on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday business cards.
The upswing in temperatures is credited to a high pressure system extending from the mid-Atlantic region through the Great Lakes region. The system is predicted to shift offshore by Friday, dropping Western New York back to the low 80s.
