Summary
Saturday afternoon brings a Yellow Alert for possibly strong thunderstorms and gusty winds in the Rochester area, with the highest concern south of the city.
A cold front arriving after scattered morning showers will tap rising humidity and moisture, increasing the chance of thunderstorms later in the day.
Friday stays warm and dry, with highs in the lower to mid-80s and only a modest uptick in mugginess before conditions turn more unsettled overnight.
Sunday is expected to turn mainly dry again, and forecasters say the weekend will not be a washout despite periods of rain and storms.
Next week starts comfortable, then shifts back toward summer heat as temperatures climb through the 80s and dew points rise into the 60s.
