Snow Potential Wednesday Night
We are still expecting an accumulating snow across much of Connecticut on Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Here are some key details:
- Timing: 9 p.m. Wednesday until 8 a.m. Thursday
- Snow Amounts: Up to two inches in most spots. Locally higher amounts in the northwest and northeast hillier towns of CT. Little to none at the shoreline.
- Impacts: Thursday morning's commute could be slippery, and a few school delays will be possible.
- What to do: Monitor our forecast, give yourself extra time on Thursday morning's commute, watch for icy spots Thursday night and Friday after the event ends.
The Connecticut shoreline will be warmer than inland areas, thus limiting any snowfall potential. However, across inland towns, you may wake up to a light coating of snowfall Thursday morning! Most of this will fall during the overnight hours but could slow Thursday's early commute.
Meanwhile regarding the temperature, it will be a cold stretch across New England over the coming days with highs around 40 and lows near 20. The cold weather shows no signs of leaving. Temperatures will drop even more by the end of this week with highs near freezing by Friday.
