Storms are now forming in western New York. The air is not as unstable as previously thought because of persistent cloud cover this morning. Temperatures will still be able to reach the upper 70's this afternoon as skies clear up somewhat. Dew points will be in the mid 50s to around 60 by this evening. The main time frame to watch will be between 5:30 and 9:00 this evening when the leading edge of the strongest storms will move through the area. Some of these storms will contain gusty winds and small hail in addition to heavy rainfall.
