I landed in Buffalo that night about an hour and a half prior to that accident. I can't figure out why they landed 32 with the winds favoring 23. They would have had a tail wind, slight component, for 32 based on the reported winds.

There was a line of weather west of BUF when we landed, that may have been a factor.
