THIS EVENING & TONIGHTâ¦
Clouds will dissipate overnight. Weâll see some lingering cloud cover by the shoreline, otherwise, youâll be able to see the stars. The humidity will make the overnight hours relatively warm. The sun will be out as we start Sunday.
THE WEEKENDâ¦
Thanks to the long end-of-May days, weâll have lots of time to boost temperatures into the 80s or possibly 90s! It will feel noticeably warmer until the evening front arrives.
A backdoor cold front will move southward across New England on Sunday, and it will reach Connecticut by late afternoon. The front will stir up a few thunderstorms during the afternoon, but theyâll be hit-or-miss, and not every town will get one. The Storm Prediction Center has placed much of Northern and Western Connecticut in a âmarginalâ risk area for damaging winds. However, any strong storms that do develop will be isolated. Before the front arrives, temperatures will soar to near 90

Our long duration snow has finally left most of New England, but some areas will continue to see snow showers today.
One area will be in the mountains where upslope snow develops, so a couple inches are possible in ski resorts. Another area is along the south shore, Cape Ann, and Cape Cod, due to ocean-effect snow and a northwest wind. Another coating to 2 of snow is possible in those spots. The main story today for most will be the chilly wind chills in the teens and 20s with a little northwest breeze. Highs reach the 30s, and there will be some sunshine.
