CONNECTICUT — Good morning!
Wednesday is starting off pretty cold with temperatures around the freezing mark and temperatures are forecast to reach into the upper 40s.
“We’ll start bright, but cloud cover will increase in advance of a storm system heading into the Great Lakes,” said WFSB 3 TV meteorologists. “While dry during the day, there’s a slight chance for an isolated rain or snow shower after sunset.
“Tomorrow is cloudier with isolated showers, but milder as temperatures head into the 60s (especially inland) behind a warm front,” said WFSB 3 TV meteorologists. “A cold front drops across the region tomorrow night and with it comes a round of showers. Friday, with the front moving far enough to our south we’re going optimistically dry… while the day starts cloudy, we’ll likely see at least partial clearing by the afternoon with temps again running above average (60+).”
“Looking ahead to the weekend, the outlook isn’t great. Both days still appear unsettled, and we could see a big swing in temperature. Saturday, highs for some may not get out of the 40s; meanwhile, Sunday is noticeably milder with temps reaching 60 or higher in spots. There is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding timing of rain, and how much could fall … so stay tuned for updates!” said WFSB 3 TV meteorologists. (Read more at WFSB 3 TV).
