Hazardous Weather Outlook Issued For Southern Connecticut

SOUTHERN CONNECTICUT — The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous weather outlook for southern Connecticut for some minor snow accumulation on Thursday morning.

"Slippery travel conditions are possible overnight as light snow moves in and leaves up to an inch of accumulation ahead of the Thursday morning commute," the weather service said.

It appears the light snow begins around midnight and continues through the morning hours. A total of 1-2 inches of accumulation is possible, the weather service said.

The snow will be light and powdery, the weather service said. The snow will taper off around mid-morning.

And there is still a chance for some wintry weather this weekend in Connecticut but here is an update from Fox 61 chief meteorologist Rachel Frank.

The weather service continues to say there is a 50 percent chance of snow Saturday night with temperatures around 20 degrees. And then there is a 40 percent chance for more snow and sleet until Sunday afternoon. No accumulation estimates have been released yet.

And if you're curious, Connecticut isn't poised to break 40 degrees for at least another 10 days, according to this long-range forecast from The Weather Channel.
