Flash Flood Warning until 10:30PM tonight 4/21 for parts of Chautauqua and Cattaraugus Counties where storms have dropped 1 to 3+ inches of rain in the past 6 hours. If you see flooded roads you are advised to turn around and find another route. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 10pm tonight (Tues) for all WNY. Join us for the latest on these storms this evening starting at 4pm on CW23. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Saw the final segment of the #IceBoom towed away today, though there was something leftover from the winter that had been pushed into it, one of the channel markers outside Buffalo. It shows up better in this ReportIt photo from this past Friday. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Have been tracking these storms from radar and cameras on the NY side of Lake Erie while Matt was seeing the fury close up from Crystal Beach, Ontario. These were moving at around 45 mph with 60+mph gust potential. Not a friendly day on the lake. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Good looking evening for a #SlowRoll with summerlike warmth, sunshine, and light wind. #RoswellLongevityRide #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Nice night for the Buffalo Bills Foundation Ride #SlowRollBuffalo. Sunset: 8:48PM #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

While we have already seen a few storms, this afternoon through early evening will likely bring another round with gusty winds and another chance for t-storms to train over the same areas leading to 2"+ inch rainfall potential locally. #turnaroundDontDrown #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

The location of Monday's tornado damage. Thankfully no injuries, though a bunch of homes were damaged or destroyed. While it was on the ground for 2.4miles the debris signature stretched for over 15 miles on radar. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

9th warmest June at KBUF over the past 154 years worth of record keeping. I know it didn't really feel like a top 10, though the past 2 weeks plus a bunch of very warm nights put us in top 10 territory. Rainfall was within .02" of average at 3.35". #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Beautiful and slightly cooler edition of the #SlowRoll tonight. Sunset time for Buffalo is 8:12PM. Overnight lows will eventually settle towards the 50's by Tue AM. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Sunny and mild for tonight's #SlowRoll with a sunset time of 7:37PM. If you can't make it out tonight, the rest of the week will feature warmer temps and continued dry conditions. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Really scored on this forecast for this year's Huddle For Hunger to benefit #FeedmoreWNY. Show up, donate, and even have the chance to meet some of the players. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Here's a bright spot in the final moments of golden hour in case you haven't seen anything that looked like sunshine today. By midweek we are trending mostly sunny across all WNY. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Opening day @HolidayValley with some sunshine and 5 of 13 lifts turning. I'll be tracking some additional snow for the weekend today on #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

While the snow totals are not huge, this is the latest through 7am Tue 12/30. Winds will continue to gust 50-70mph today causing whiteouts and tough travel conditions. Be safe if you venture out and tune in tonight for more on the next wave of LakeEffect #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

The bulk of the snow to round out 2025 around Buffalo will be on the ground by 8pm 12/31, #lakeeffect snow will continue beyond. There are two maps covering through 7am Thurs to clarify the sharp cutoff on the northern end of the totals. Happy New Year! #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Looks like NY Power Authority crews are taking advantage of the milder temps and light ENE wind to install the #iceBoom this afternoon. This is much later than usual and the amount of ice in the river reflects this. Lake Erie is at 33% ice coverage as of 1/5/26 #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

While I was looking at this camera to check on traffic and a snow squall that had just rolled through, I spotted the #icebreaker in the river. Beyond this I'll share thoughts on the lake effect plus the weekend snow this evening on #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

These cumulative totals are my final answer (as of 7pm 1/23) for the weekend's widespread snow. Saturday will just be extremely cold with minor lake flakes, Sunday will mark the start of a widespread 1ft+ for most of NY and PA. Stay tuned for updates #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX

Cool cross border collaboration that helps keep the power intakes above Niagara Falls clear and the lights on. Looks like the captains came up close enough to hand them a coffee today. As of this post, both were still out on the river crushing it. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX
