3/24- Chilly to Wet

Good Thursday all-

Today is going to be a rather unfortunate day, with highs in the low 50s or even high 40s with scattered showers as a cold front stalls just barely to our south. Sadly, tomorrow looks worse in terms of precip, but much better in terms of temperature. Although highs will likely reach the mid-60s...we will probably be wet the vast majority of the day tomorrow, though some clearing is possible in the late afternoon tomorrow as a cold front moves through. I cannot even rule out some thunderstorms during the day...though the risk is not nearly as high as it would be if the front came a few hours later.  Nonetheless, the SPC has placed Connecticut under a SEE TEXT risk of severe weather, so it's not impossible! The weekend looks great, but rain returns by Monday.

Today in weather history- March 24, 1912- A monster snowstorm drops 25" of snow in Kansas City, MO, breaking their all-time record for snowiest winter, sending them to 67" for the season. Even more remarkable is that this storm produced more than twice as much snow....than any other storm in recorded history!
