156 AM EDT Wed Jul 22 2026 SYNOPSIS... Much cooler today, with scattered showers ahead of a gradual warm up through the remainder of the week. A strong cold front will move across the eastern Great Lakes region this morning. Elevated instability and deep moisture will support showers and a few thunderstorms along the front. Cold air advection within a westerly flow will bring an abrupt airmass change to the region causing 850mb temperatures will fall to +6C by this afternoon and limit high temperatures to the 60s to low 70s. Based on past soundings at KBUF, +6C at 850mb is below the 10th percentile and near the daily min for this time of year. Steepening low level lapse rates under an upper level trough will support widely scattered showers with lake enhancement focusing showers and lake clouds east- southeast of the Lakes today.
