      Wednesday Forecast:

      So the wind on Wednesday is from a different system than today. There is a small low pressure system forming over Lake Michigan tonight that will pass north of Buffalo tomorrow. It is more localized which can be a little more finicky than larger systems like we had today, plus we still have the heat to contend with that likely caused the drop in wind magnitude at 2:30pm today.

      Timing is important for Wednesday as it will start out south and veer to SW. I think the best time for SW direction and magnitude on eastern Lake Erie is from 11am-1pm. But check models again in the morning. Magnitude looks to be around 20-35mph with perhaps a couple gusts into the 40’s.

      Cold front with this one, but not until around 8pm, so we are looking at pre-frontal wind. Good to watch meters upwind as a pre-game forecast.
