NBCUniversal Media, LLC

Snow squall warnings have been issued for Fairfield, Middlesex and New Haven counties.

Snow squall warnings are in effect until 12:30 p.m.

The snow squalls come after an Alberta Clipper system brought several inches of snow to parts of Connecticut.

That led to lots of school delays as well as some closings.

Snow started around 7 p.m. Wednesday and continues through much of the morning before dwindling down.

Some elevated areas of northern Connecticut have received four, five six, even up to eight, inches of snow before the compacting.

Here's a look at some of the snow totals:

  • Bakersville: 5.8 inches
  • Bridgewater: 5 inches
  • Lisbon: 5.5 inches
  • New Fairfield: 3.2 inches
  • Roxbury: 5 inches
  • Seymour: 4 inches
  • Tolland: 7 inches
  • Wolcott: 8 inches

The snow led to some slick spots and there were some school delays and closings. You can see a full list here.

There are also several power outages.

Eversource is reporting around 10,000 power outages and most are in Stafford and Mansfield.

It will be very windy later Thursday and gusts up to 35 to 45 miles per hour and a few isolated power outages and tree damage are possible.

A wind advisory is issued for Thursday and Thursday night.

Freezing temperatures later tonight will bring ice and icy patches.

Friday will also be cold and windy with gusts up to 30 miles per hour.

The feels-like temperatures will be in the teens and 20s.

The weekend will be fair.
