BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Western New Yorkers will have a chance to witness one of the most beautiful astronomical events of 2026 on the evening of June 9, when Venus and Jupiter appear extraordinarily close together in the twilight sky. The rare planetary conjunction will place the two brightest planets visible from Earth within roughly 1.5 degrees of each other — close enough to fit comfortably inside a pair of binoculars.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — What would your first guess be if someone asked you, "How often does Buffalo have a white Christmas?" Would you think, it's Buffalo, it has to be close to 100%? Would you wonder what the parameters are to constitute a white Christmas?

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — July 2025 is going down in the history books as one of the driest on record. Through the first 30 days only .58" of rain has fallen. On seven of the days only a "trace" of rain fell at the Buffalo Airport and only three days had over .10". it's been a dry July and even with rain arriving for the last day, it'll still be going in the record books.
