Good Thursday all-
Today is going to be the last in quite some time to be chilly, as we won't reach the freezing mark, but that will change tomorrow as we finally crack that mark and go above freezing. That will only continue through the weekend, where we likely will see highs in the 50s before a cold front on Monday produces some rain showers and knocks the temperatures back to below freezing once more. Unfortunately, this warmth is causing a potential catastrophe in northwest Connecticut in Kent, where an ice jam is blocking water from proceeding down a river into Long Island Sound. When the ice melts, this will likely result in severe flooding for that region as all the excess water builds up. The hope would be that, instead of melting per se, it simply is allowed to move further down the river. Keep those tiny communities off to our northwest in your thoughts as we move on this weekend. For reference to the severity, Jim Cantore is in Kent this morning. Yikes.
No major snowfalls are in sight anytime in the immediate future, however, the pattern does appear favorable for some white stuff to fall around the 25th.
