We have all the right ingredients for one of the coldest nights of the year. A large high pressure system will provide clear skies, light winds and a dry atmosphere. Most areas will see widespread frost later Saturday night. The temperature will dip into the lower 30s, but many communities south of the New York State Thruway will find the mercury falling into the upper 20s. Also, remember to set your clocks back an hour earlier as we switch to standard time at 2 in the morning.

The same atmospheric conditions will bring more sunshine to finish this first weekend in November. Sunday will see lots of sunshine and just a light breeze. It will be a pleasant afternoon with highs in the low to mid 50s. If you’re heading to the Bills game at Highmark Stadium on Sunday afternoon, it’s going to be a near-perfect day for football. It will be dry, sunny and mild. It will be chilly for the tailgaters, but by game time the temperature will be in the 50s.

Then the heat starts to arrive for Monday and Tuesday. Both days will bring a mix of clouds and sun. Temperatures will reach the mid-60s for Monday and possibly near the record high of 77 degrees (set in 2022) for Tuesday. It is important to note that no weather problems are expected on election day.
