Both Monday and Tuesday will feature highs in the upper 50s, about 5 to 10 degrees below normal. April, now two-thirds of the way through the month, has been very dry with deficits over 2 inches.Īs of now, for next week, with a disturbance aloft in our vicinity… we’ll see more clouds than sun with temps running near or a bit below normal to begin the week. On the Drought Monitor, CT is now classified as abnormally dry with parts of the state in the moderate drought category. While poorly timed, the wet weather is much needed. There could be locally higher amounts due to the slow moving nature of the front, and especially if any thunderstorms develop that could enhance the potential for heavier rain. By the time this all wraps up late Sunday, many communities will receive 1.0-1.5″ of rain.
Rain tapers to spotty showers through the afternoon hours Sunday, with temps between 60-65. There could be a period of moderate to heavy rain, perhaps a rumble of thunder (severe weather is not expected). Rain becomes likely tomorrow night into Sunday morning with the arrival of a slow-moving cold front. It will be primarily cloudy with highs tomorrow in the lower half of the 60s. The onshore wind continues, with a southeasterly breeze transporting cool and damp air off of the chilly Atlantic. This is compliments of the onshore flow in advance of an approaching cold front.
