Good Tuesday all-
A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY is in effect for all of Connecticut from 2PM today to 630AM tomorrow...but this is just the warmup act. This afternoon (around 1) snow will be developing from west to east, and quickly become heavy at times before changing to sleet at around 8 PM tonight. 3 AM seems to be the magic number for the transition to rain and freezing rain. My concern is primarily that the snow is cold enough where it can create freezing rain even if the temperature is 34 or so...and that there could be a fair amount (0.1-0.25") of ice accumulation. The precipitation will end around 9 AM tomorrow altogether, for about 12 hours. By tomorrow night, however, heavy snow develops once more, except this time the storm will remain all snow...and a major snowstorm is very possible tomorrow night and Thursday morning. In a worst case situation...as much as 10-15" could fall...but I'd expect a more modest 5-10" at this time. Let's see how this plays out...I'll have an update for you once I see the noon model runs today, as they are absolutely key to nailing down whether Thursday will be a moderate snowfall...or the second biggest snowfall of the season thus far.
Either way, the weekend looks fine, but another snow event is likely on Monday. We're way too far out for any details on that, however.
