Sunday Morning Weather Blog
Good Sunday morning! It's November 24, 2024 and as you step out this morning, our recent rainstorm is finished! During the last few days, Bradley International Airport received 1.32 inches of rainfall, the highest three-day total since mid-August when we had severe flooding in SW CT.
The weather system, which gave us all the rain, is pulling away this weekend. However it is so close and strong that winds have been gusting between 30-40 mph across the state.

Today will still be breezy, but the wind won't be as strong as yesterday. Expect wind gusts between 25 and 30 mph today. We'll start off with temps in the 40s, rising into the upper 40s to about 50 degrees statewide in the afternoon. With the continued breeze it'll likely feel like the mid 40s, so the jacket will be needed yet again.
Our next chance for rain arrives on Tuesday with temperatures spiking into the mid 50s. As we approach Thanksgiving, another system will work its way closer to Connecticut. Temps will be cooler into the low and mid 40s. Scattered rain and even a few snow showers look possible into Black Friday. We'll continue to finetune the forecast over the next week.
Behind the Black Friday system, we're expecting a big temperature change as we head into the first week of December.
