CONNECTICUT WEATHER’S LATEST FORECAST DISCUSSION

April 26, 2024                    8:00 AM

Another chilly start for your Friday as station data shows temperatures in the upper 20s to low 30s across the interior this morning with coastal areas even getting down into the mid-30s. Expect another day of sunshine today with temperatures approaching 60 degrees alongside light winds. With cool high pressure still in control, there will be one more opportunity for frost again Friday night into Saturday morning before warmer air takes hold.

With high pressure slowly traversing the area, expecting mostly sunny skies and temperatures on the low 60s Saturday. A weak disturbance comes into the area Saturday night with showers, but most of the activity will conclude by 8AM Sunday morning. Temperatures will be noticeably warmer with highs near 70 on Sunday, and then very warm with most areas in the 70s or even low 80s Monday. Models remain well aligned with above average temperatures as we head towards May, with widespread upper 60s to mid-70s away from the immediate shoreline next week. Watching a weak frontal system to bring a period of showers and storms on Tuesday, but coverage and timing are low confidence at this time.
