It feels more like February than April across Connecticut at the moment, because a cold wind from Canada is ushering this unseasonable air mass. It will be a windy first half of tonight, with gusts up to 40 mph possible through midnight, then the wind relaxes a little bit by Wednesday morning, but not before making it feel like the 20's and 10's overnight.
