Good Saturday all-
Well, this might take a while to get through this morning- a WINTER STORM WARNING is in effect for Hartford, Tolland, and Windham counties, a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY has been issued for Fairfield county, a WIND CHILL WARNING has been issued for Litchfield, but most importantly a BLIZZARD WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR NEW HAVEN, MIDDLESEX, AND NEW LONDON COUNTIES.
This is the first time in my memory that we have received two blizzards in the same season, and is almost undoubtedly the shortest return period for a blizzard in Connecticut history (A little over two weeks). Accumulations will not be particularly harsh (not that 4-8" isn't significant) but the wind howling is going to be blowing the snow around so much this is certainly warranted. The second blizzard of 2015 is here, so enjoy it please, and keep an eye on Tuesday as the models have most definately returned the threat of a huge snowstorm (1ft+). Unsurprisingly, another nor'easter threat exists next weekend. The next name on WFSB's name list is Gavin, and I consider it highly likely Tuesday's storm will be that.
