Hazardous Weather Outlook Issued As More Storms Expected For CT

CONNECTICUT — It was a wild day of weather in parts of Connecticut on Wednesday as severe storms rolled through the state, especially in Hartford and Tolland counties where significant damage was reported.

At one point a Tornado Warning was issued for parts of Tolland, Hartford, and Windham counties, and while a tornado hasn't been confirmed there was significant damage reported in Manchester and Glastonbury.

Some video shared by weather watchers depicted "rotation" which is often associated with tornados. Unfortunately, there is a concern that there may be more storms this afternoon and evening, though the thunderstorms are not expected to be as severe as Wednesdays.

A Hazardous Weather Outlook has been issued for Connecticut for the chance of some severe weather today.

For Southern Connecticut, the National Weather Service says, "The Storm Prediction Center has placed the area in a Marginal Risk for severe weather this afternoon and evening. The primary threat is damaging winds in the strongest storms."

For Northern Connecticut, the National Weather Service says, "Scattered strong thunderstorms as possible across most of the region east of the central and northern Connecticut Valley this afternoon into early tonight. The main threat will be gusty winds and heavy downpours."

An Air Quality Alert has also been issued for the I-95 coast from 11 a.m. until 11 p.m. "An Air Quality Action Day means that Ground Level Ozone within the region may approach or exceed unhealthy standards."

WTNH News 8 Meteorologist Gil Simmons says, "Hot temperatures and humid conditions for the day today. Early fog will burn off then temperatures hitting the 80s to around 90. The heat index will be around 100 this afternoon! Watch out this evening, there could be some thunderstorms coming through that will continue overnight into early Friday morning. Clearing Friday afternoon and beautiful for the weekend with a much cooler weather feel!"
