Good Wednesday all-
Be careful out there!!! The roads are horrendous due to the ice and some areas did indeed receive several inches of snow overnight this evening. In fact, the majority of schools that are in session are delayed this morning...and wisely so! It appears most schools appear to be opening at around ten am, which seems like a wise choice to me as most roads will still be horrific until at least 9 and probably a bit later! Unfortunately, the snow didn't stick here in Wallingford, but I think it was mostly freezing rain here, which makes it way worse! Beyond this, another snowfall is actually possible on Saturday with a few more inches possible as a coastal low misses to the east but wraparound moisture tries to enter Connecticut. There is too low of a chance of this to issue a storm watch at this time, however, so the main focus of the next several days is way below average temps- some areas today may not make it to 45! Enjoy your day after an April snowfall!
Today in weather history- April 16, 1975- A snowstorm drops ten FEET of snow on Oregon. Also
April 16, 1977- A weak shower somehow manages to spawn a weak TORNADO near Wichita Falls, Texas...and it moves west, the exact opposite direction of the way they usually move!
