What's the weather like in Western New York in the summer?
Buffalo gets a bad rap when it comes to its weather. Sure, we get some nasty weather in December, January, and February. We might get some snow in March and April but normally it doesn't last long.
By May, things are normally beginning to turn around in Western New York. That's when we start to see temps up into the 60s regularly. By June, we normally have temps in the lower to mid-70s. Then in July and August, we will see anything from 75-85 on average. With the cool breeze from the lake, it rarely feels hot and humid.
Granted, we get our bad days. We will get some rain and occasionally we will get colder than those temperatures but that's not normal. Buffalo normally has great weather in the summer.
