From WFSB

This is exactly as I see it right now


Snow will likely develop Sunday night as a storm moves off the Mid-Atlantic Coast.  More snow is likely on Monday and it could really add up.  The Monday morning commute could be adversely impacted and perhaps the evening commute as well.  The snow may not end until Monday night.  How much snow we'll have to plow and shovel on Monday will depend on the exact storm track, as usual.  One of our computer guidance models, the GFS, is putting out more than 0.75" of liquid equivalent for portions of the state.  That means there is the potential for more than 6" of snow.  However, if the storm takes a more southerly track, snowfall totals will be less.  This is something we'll have to watch closely tomorrow and throughout the weekend.



I 100% agree with the above. I really did speak too soon with amounts. At this stage I encourage you to not listen to anybody's maps until Sat PM...The numbers I put out are generally the highest possible impact because I have found most people want to prepare for and expect the worst and then be happy if/when it turns out to be less. For what it is worth though, the 18z GFS model shows the biggest snowstorm yet for any model run in the last week for Connecticut with over 2 feet in most areas. Way too many unknowns at this point- stay tuned! I shall stay put on numbers because of consistency for the time being
