Coldest Night This Season!

The National Weather Service has issued a FREEZE WARNING for CT (2AM - 9AM Monday) because this evening is expected to be the coldest night of the season. BRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

A freeze warning is issued when temperatures are cold enough to kill outdoor plants.

I'm forecasting overnight low temperatures between 27-29 degrees inland, and 29-32 degrees along the shoreline.

IF the forecast is correct, this will "end the growing season". That means you will no longer see freeze watches or warnings because...plants are already dead.

forecast From 10-31

Face The Music...In Business Class?

This is fun story about using music to teach people about teamwork and organization! But even more important, I sang on live TV. I guess you could say I'm officially "myself" on-air at this point. I never stop singing...whether you think it sounds good or not!

Monday's Forecast

This forecast is current for Monday

A slow moving storm will continue to spin up wet, breezy and cool conditions through Wednesday. Skies will remain cloudy today with showers or drizzle at times. Although it will not rain all day, keep the umbrella handy. Winds will howl at times, blowing out of the northeast at 5 to 15 mph with locally higher gusts. Tomorrow the storm will strengthen causing rain to become more steady and heavy. After a lingering shower early Thursday, clearing is expected. The end of the week looks great!

Holy Hail!

A few storms developed this afternoon with some cold air moving into the upper levels of the atmosphere. Some storms had lightning and high cloud tops that produced hail! Shelton Police reported hail 1.75" in diameter at 2:11 PM in Shelton! I haven't seen hail that big in any pics I have seen. But here are some other pics my lovely facebook friends sent in!

Although there could be another isolated storm tonight with hail, I think most locations will just see a few leftover showers/drizzle. Periods of rain will continue right through Wednesday (maybe early Thursday).
