Sunny and dry weather will continue for the Finger Lakes through the upcoming weekend, with temperatures generally near or just above normal.

The Finger Lakes remains locked into a tranquil weather pattern with high pressure dominating and preventing any weather systems from approaching the area.

This weather pattern will remain virtually unchanged for the foreseeable future, with sunny and dry conditions at least through the weekend. There may be a few showers on Monday, but dry weather should return immediately following any rain that manages to fall.

Temperatures will be steady as well, with morning lows in the 40s and 50s and afternoon highs in the low to mid 70s. Once again, the only day that may end up different would be Monday, when some cooler temperatures would be possible if there is extra cloud cover and rain in the area.

Unfortunately, high pressure will block the eastward progression of an area of low pressure bringing some soaking rain to the Midwest. This low is actually the remains of a tropical depression from the eastern Pacific Ocean, but the system should dissipate over the northern Mid West over the next day or two.
