Hazardous weather outlook in effect, plus flash-flood warning issued

By Billie Owens

There's a harzardous weather outlook in effect for Western New York, according to the National Weather Service in Buffalo. A slow-moving cold front will drop southeastward across the Eastern Great Lakes Region and it has the potential to produce a few strong thunderstorms with heavy rainfall.

In addition, a flash-flood warning has been issued for Southeastern Genesee County and Central Wyoming County until 8:45 p.m.

At 5:46 p.m., Emergency Management reported thunderstorms producing heavy rain across central Wyoming County, and specifically Pavilion in Genesee County. Those in affected areas are advised to move to higher ground now.

After the storm had hit for a while, either while it is still raining or immediately after, folks who are interested in where the new police station will be located should take a look at the proposed areas. Might be a good opportunity to see how flooding from one storm might affect the proposed sites.
