Summer-like weather to return to WNY for the work week and beyond

Buffalo, N.Y. (WBEN) - If the rapid shift to fall-like weather has you down, just wait a day and summer will return to the Buffalo-Niagara region, National Weather Service forecasters promise.

The taste of fall-like weather continues for Sunday, with only lake effect showers continuing mainly east and southeast of Lake Ontario and partly sunny and breezy conditions for most of WNY.

Another round of showers and possible thunderstorms arrive Monday as a fast moving system drops through the region. "After that, it's looking fantastic for the rest of the work week," NWS meteorologist Aaron Reynolds tells WBEN.

Fair and dry weather returns areawide Tuesday, with a day to day warming trend and summer-like weather for the the second half of the week.

Temperatures will climb into the low to mid 70's for Tuesday, then the start of a summery stretch will begin Wednesday when the mercury will soar to the lower 80s across the bulk of the region.
