Snowstorm Alert: Weekend Forecast Calls for Inches of Snowfall – Is Your Town at Risk?

HARTFORD, Conn. – Light snow on Thursday morning left a dusting in many towns across Connecticut, but it’s not expected to cause any disruptions to schools or commutes. However, meteorologists from NBC Connecticut StormTracker are tracking a snowstorm expected to develop on Saturday evening and continue into Sunday. The forecast suggests that the storm could bring anywhere from an inch to a foot of snow, depending on the region of the state.

Thursday is expected to become brighter and more blustery as the day progresses, with clear and cold conditions in the evening, with temperatures in the 20s and wind chill in the teens. Friday will be sunny and chilly, with temperatures in the 30s but feeling like the 20s all day. Then Saturday is expected to be cloudy and chilly as the snowstorm begins to develop in the evening and throughout the day on Sunday, with heavy snowfall at times.

Snowfall predictions include as little as three inches along the shoreline, but between six to twelve inches are expected inland. There’s also the possibility of another storm bringing rain or ice by Tuesday.

In summary, Connecticut is anticipating a snowstorm starting Saturday evening, potentially bringing significant snow accumulation. The forecast could change, but the state may see widespread snowfall accumulation, especially inland. Residents should also keep an eye out for another storm projected to bring rain or ice by Tuesday.
