Looking for sunshine? We'll get it later today. A heavy dose of patience works well on this Thursday.

Confidence is growing that we have rain on Saturday, but the question is when. American model is further east with this low pressure and associated cold front, bringing rain all day. Euro is slower, keeping showers into the evening.

From Friday to Monday, check out the dramatic difference in foliage as spring has sprung! These are from our cameras looking over Rochester.

Angry skies! Lake Ontario is back in action, helping produce lake-effect rain and snow showers this morning. A rare April sight to the north.

While we aren't getting into the 80s, there are some diamonds in the rough. Both Thursday and Friday look to be good with a ton of dry time, partial sunshine, and warmer air.

7:10AM RADAR UPDATE:
The back edge of rain is quickly approaching and should be in Rochester before 8am. There will be plenty of dry time through noon before a few afternoon showers pass by.

Just wow. What an epic weekend. We may not get one like that for another two months.

It's springtime, and that means thunderstorms become more frequent in our forecasts (like this Saturday and Sunday). Brush up on some quick facts about storms, and some of the terms you might hear us say in our forecasts.

I'm having trouble finding a pathway for rain Saturday or Sunday. It looks like both days will make another run toward 80° with partial sunshine. It can't get much better.

Every city in the entire world is constantly polluting the air, some worse than others. Rochester is rarely impacted as we have weather patterns that help clear out the pollution... But stagnant air over several days with high temperatures is when we run into problems.

This sunrise was created by AI and chatGPT.
Just kidding. It's Mother Nature. And it's beautiful.

Yesterday, News 8 asked you what the best place is to grab an ice cream. This morning, and shared their favorite spots.
Do you agree with their picks?

Rochester could break a CRAZY old record today if this holds. We bottomed out at 59° this morning, the warmest ever on record. We just need to stay in the 60s through midnight.

Yes, it's time to start thinking about sunscreen. I know it's April, but the sun will start sneaking up on you especially on a day like today! @News_8

The next three days we have lows in the 50s and highs well into the 70s. From a climatology perspective, this is more like early June.
