Weather Blogging
Weather is complex, and often, a simple graphic does not tell the whole story.

From detailed forecast discussions and recapping recent weather events, to looking beyond our region at what the weather is doing elsewhere, to teaching about the weather in an easy to understand format, Finger Lakes Weather offers four different blogs.

Weather Planner: Friday, October 16, 2026
A strong weather system will impact the area on Friday with gusty winds and active weather. Showers and thunderstorms are expected early in the morning.

Temperatures will top out in the upper 60s to near 70 degrees during the midday or early afternoon. Showers and storms will quickly redevelop over the area as the first of a pair of cold fronts passes through. A couple storms could be strong.
