Good Tuesday everyone!
A major rainstorm is on the way to Connecticut with an amazingly powerful slow-moving cold front. Due to how strong it is, I expect 2-3 inches of rain followed by as much as one to two inches of snow overnight tonight. Also, I expect the chance for thunderstorms to occur this afternoon, and there is a slight chance of severe weather this afternoon as the front is one of the more powerful ones that I have ever seen. It looks like pouring rain also Saturday and Monday. If I continue seeing these signs, I will issue another storm watch for this day later tomorrow- my rule will be only one storm watch at a time except in extraordinary circumstances (such as in February when Winter Storm Easton was followed by another significant snowstorm the following day). Anyways, enjoy the wet weather and the flakes coming tonight. Also, a flood warning has been issued for Hartford and Tolland Counties, so at least think about that possibility. Enjoy today, I'll be back with the latest forecast tonight with more details on the changeover to snow! Also, we missed the total lunar eclipse last night due to the clouds, but at least there are three more in the next two years!
Today in weather history- April 15, 1991- Somehow, Bossier City, LA records two FEET of rain in three days! For comparison, it would have to rain like it will today for almost two weeks to pick up that much!
