WE'VE
WE'VE GOT
WE'VE GOT A VERY PRETTY MAP TO LOOK AT IT FOR 44 LOTS OF
DIFFERENT COLORS. LOTS OF
DIFFERENT MEANINGS. SO LET'S GET
TO IT. YOU'VE GOT A WINTER STORM
WARNING, WHICH MEANS BUSINESS.
THAT MEANS WE'RE EXPECTING SIX
PLUS INCHES OF SNOW IN THAT PART
OF THE STATE, AND IT COULD
REALLY MEASURE UP IN PARTS OF
LITCHFIELD WHERE WE'RE GOING FOR
AS MUCH AS 12 TO 18 INCHES OF
SNOW. AND THAT PART OF THE STATE
BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BE
PRIMARILY SNOW. THIS IS A WINTER
STORM WATCH FOR HARTFORD COUNTY
AGAIN, A WINTER STORM WARNING
FOR TALENT AND WINDHAM IN A
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN
EFFECT FOR THE IMMEDIATE
SHORELINE WHERE WE'RE EXPECTING
EXCUSE ME FOR THE NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF OUR FOREST, SOUTHERN
COUNTIES, NOTHING ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE SHORELINE. SO HERE'S
THE BREAKDOWN. THIS IS WHAT
WE'RE GOING TO EXPECT OVER THE
COURSE OF THE NEXT TWO DAYS.
IT'S NOT GOING TO COME ALL AT
ONCE. IT'S NOT GOING TO COME
DURING THE DAY TODAY. IT'S GOING
TO BASICALLY BE RAINED TODAY AS
THE TEMPERATURES MOVE UP INTO
THE UPPER THIRTIES AND LOW
FORTIES, BUT BY TONIGHT THOSE
TEMPERATURES START DROPPING SOME
COLD AIR STARTS FILTERING IN AND
WE SEE THAT CHANGE OVER TO SNOW,
BUT BASICALLY APPEAR WHERE THE
TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO BE
HOVERING AROUND 34 35 36. IT
LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE
MAINLY A SNOW EVENT. THAT'S
WHERE WE'RE GOING FOR THE
HIGHEST AMOUNTS 8 TO 16 INCHES 4
TO 8 IN THIS SWATH OF BLUE UP IN
PARTS OF NORTHEAST CONNECTICUT.
2 TO 4 INCHES NOT HORRIBLE,
RIGHT? CERTAINLY MANAGEABLE AND
THEN MAYBE AN INCH OR TWO ALONG
THE IMMEDIATE SHORELINE, BUT
THAT'S ABOUT IT. IN THE MEANTIME
, JUST STARTING TO SEE THE VERY
BEGINNINGS, LITTLE INKLING OF
SOME SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY, YOU
CAN SEE IT MARCHING THROUGH
TORRINGTON. IT'S BASICALLY
INSIGNIFICANT THIS MORNING. YOUR
ROADS ARE DRY. YOU'RE PRETTY
GOOD TO GO. THE VISIBILITY'S
THAT ARE PERFECT. 10 SO
TEMPERATURE TREND TODAY YOU'LL
NOTICE A COUPLE OF FLAKES IN THE
FORECAST AT SIX AM I JUST SHOWED
YOU THEM. IN EARLY MORNING JEW,
PAUL RADAR, AND THEN YOU'LL
NOTICE THE RAIN ICONS. EIGHT AM
SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS. IT'LL BE
ON AND OFF THROUGHOUT THE DAY
TODAY. HERE'S THE STORM SYSTEM,
AND IT'S REALLY GOING TO GEAR
UP. YOU'RE JUST GOING TO FOLLOW
THE CIRCLE. THIS IS THAT AREA OF
LOW PRESSURE. OKAY, YOU'LL SEE
THE CENTER. IT STARTS WRAPPING
AROUND BY ONE O'CLOCK TOMORROW
AFTERNOON. IT'S DRAGGING IN THIS
COUNTERCLOCKWISE FLOW OF COLDER
AIR, AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE
EXPECTING SNOW DURING THE DAY
TOMORROW. SEE THAT SNOW THROUGH
11 O'CLOCK TOMORROW NIGHT, AND
THEN IT ALL STARTS TO WIND DOWN
WEDNESDAY MORNING IS LOOKING
PRETTY GOOD, BUT STORM IMPACTS
FROM THIS STORM. POOR VISIBILITY
. THIS IS FOR INLAND CONNECTICUT
SLICK ROADWAYS, YOU'LL NOTICE
IT'S BORDERING ON HIGH SLICK
ROADWAYS HIGH 40 PLUS MILE AN
HOUR WINDS. THAT'S PRETTY
SUBSTANTIAL THAT COULD DELETE TO
SOME POWER OUTAGES AND AS WE
TAKE A LOOK AT THE SHORELINE
IMPACTS, YOU'RE GONNA NOTICE.
BASICALLY THE SAME JUST
DOWNGRADED A LITTLE BIT. BUT
THOSE 40 PLUS MILE AN HOUR
WIND% ALMOST APPROACHING THE HIGH MARK
ALONG THE SHORE LINE AS WELL.
TEMPERATURES OUT THERE THIS
MORNING OR IN THE MID TO UPPER
THIRTIES. GOOD MORNING TO YOU.
IT'S PRETTY MILD OUT THERE
COMPARED TO WHERE WE SHOULD BE
26 TYPICAL OVERNIGHT LOW AND WE
ARE UP SUBSTANTIALLY FROM
YESTERDAY, ANYWHERE FROM 8 TO 12
DEGREES WARMER. THE WINDS ARE
OUT OF THE NORTHEAST TODAY, +32.
SEVEN MILES AN HOUR. NOT
SUBSTANTIAL. SO YOU'VE GOT
SECTION ONE. YOU'VE GOT SECTION
TO THESE TWO ARE GOING TO JOIN
FORCES AND TURN INTO A PRETTY
BIG STORM SYSTEM CLASSIC NOR
EASTER, SO LET'S FOLLOW IT.
ALONG WITH FUTURECAST.
TOMORROW'S WEATHER TODAY JUST
RAN THE CLOCK DOWN THROUGH NOON,
NOT A WHOLE LOT OF ACTIVITY,
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THAT
NORTHWEST AND SOUTHWEST CORNERS
OF THE STATE, THEN BY FIVE PM
IT'S BASICALLY A RAIN EVENT WITH
THE EXCEPTION OF LIKE NORFOLK.
IT COULD BE ALL SNOW UP THERE
BUT BASICALLY A RAIN EVENT AND
THEN WATCH THAT COLD AIR. THIS
IS NINE O'CLOCK TONIGHT SNOW FOR
NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT, WHERE
WE'RE GOING FOR THOSE HIGHER
TOTALS. RAIN FOR JUST ABOUT
EVERYBODY ELSE, TOO. AM VERY
HEAVY RAIN OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AND
THEN THE COLD AIR COMES WRAPPING
IN AND HERE COMES THAT SNOW
COULDN'T BE A LITTLE LITTLE BIT
OF A DRY SLIDE FOR NORTHEAST AND
SOUTHEAST CONNECTICUT. BUT BY
SIX P.M. TOMORROW EVENING, IT IS
SNOWING AND IT SNOWS THROUGH
ABOUT 11 O'CLOCK SO IT'S GOING
TO BE A MESSY DAY. ONCE AGAIN.
HERE ARE THE SNOWFALL TOTALS
WERE PROJECTING 1 TO 2 FOR THE
SHORELINE. 2 TO 4 FOR CENTRAL
CONNECTICUT, 4 TO 8 FOR NORTHERN
SECTIONS, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF
LITCHFIELD COUNTY, YOU GUYS ARE
GONNA PROBABLY HIT THE JACKPOT
TEMPERATURES TODAY. UPPER
THIRTIES LOW FORTIES. YOUR SEVEN
DAY FORECAST INCLUDES WINDY,
MESSY THERE COULD BE AGAIN POWER
OUTAGES. NOT A GREAT STUFF. NOT
A GREAT START TO THIS WEEK AND
TOMORROW IS THE WORST OF IT
WEDNESDAY MORNING AT ALL TAPERS
OFF WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON LOOKS
GOOD AND THEN THE REST OF THE
WEEK
