HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!! LONG WEEKEND!!
Well, let's start with the most important weather alert- a WINTER STORM WATCH has been issued for everyone Middlesex county and east...a WIND CHILL ADVISORY is in effect until noon today...and a HIGH WIND WATCH for New Haven and Fairfield counties has been issued for Sunday. Based on the accumulation forecast, however, I expect that New Haven County and Hartford County will eventually get into the Winter Storm Watch...as NOAA currently expects 5-9" on their local forecast. (WSW criteria is 6) Additionally, it's not impossible that these get upgraded to Blizzard Warnings, though I am unsure that we meet the whiteout conditions necessary for this- the wind will certainly meet the criteria. As for accumulations...I'll go with 3-6" for Fairfield and Litchfield counties...5-10" for New Haven, Hartford, and western portions of Tolland and Middlesex counties...and 8-15" for everyone else. There's also a chance of a significant snowstorm in the middle of next week (around Tuesday night)...though it looks like we may have dodged that one for the time being.
In any event, strap in and enjoy this snowstorm!
