ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Meteorologists are always looking for the trend. Is the trend up or is the trend down? Let’s focus specifically on the temperature trend. The recorded high temperature for the last seven days for Rochester shows that last Tuesday and Wednesday the mercury barely reached 50 degrees.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Even though we are well into the fall season, did you know that the tropical and hurricane season is still active?

TROSEWLL, N.M. — Roswell, New Mexico is famous for other reasons, but it is now also renowned because of the amount of rainfall measured this past weekend. Massive amounts of flash flooding were reported in that area with a Doppler radar estimate of over eight inches of rain in a very short amount of time.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — It is this time of the year when we start thinking about what kind of winter season is coming to Western New York. In the short term, the snow is already beginning to fly out west through the Rocky Mountains, Alaska and the Canadian Yukon.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — You cannot argue with the weather conditions so far for this fall season. The month of September is a great example and that is evident when tracking the number of days with above average temperatures.

We have all the right ingredients for one of the coldest nights of the year. A large high-pressure system will provide clearing skies, light wind, and a dry atmosphere. Most areas will see widespread frost for later Saturday night. The temperature will fall into the lower 30s, but many communities south of the New York State Thruway will find the mercury falling into the upper 20s. In addition, do not forget to set the clocks back one hour earlier as we shift to standard time at 2 a.m.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — This will be the third week in a row that Western New York could come close to a record high temperature.

At this time of year, whether the temperature is up or down, Rochester can experience rapid changes. This is usually the battle between the seasons, and a symptom of those temperature changes can be higher wind speeds.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Plenty of wet weather to finish the weekend with most areas seeing a quarter of an inch or more of rain.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – It is November, so somebody has to be getting the snow. During this past weekend, the states of Colorado and New Mexico have been digging out. However, there was a problem with this snowfall. It was not the light, fluffy type of snow, but more of a heavy, moisture-laden type of snow. As a result, there were many power outages and accidents on area roadways in this part of the country.
