2/25- Historic Night for CT...nice day

Good Thursday all-

A FLOOD WARNING is up for the Housatonic River this morning.

The only words that can be used to describe last night are "wow", "amazing", and "remarkable". It was crazy- hurricane force winds were recorded through many portions of Connecticut and have taken enough trees down that many schools are delayed or even closed today- far more than I can remember for any previous rainstorm/severe event, so be sure to check the listings. It's unbelievable just how strong these storms were considering it is FEBRUARY- we shall remember this one for a long time throughout the region.

Fortunately, that's all there is to talk about for now. I mean it- there's nothing at all on the weather radar until a week from today and it looks similar to the previous storm, at least in terms of path, so snow/ice/rain type deal would be probable.

Today in weather history- February 25, 2016- Incredible storms wallop the northeast, bringing hurricane force winds and knocking out power to over 70,000 people in Connecticut and causing an incredibly large number of school delays and closings.

*I don't like doing this, but this event is so amazingly rare that I had to*
