Periods of rain will continue with most areas picking up on
average 2.5” of rain. A cold front
working through the state will cause temperatures to crash about 20 degrees
within just a couple of hours! As the cold air filters in, rain will in and
change over to sleet and snow. Northwestern
Connecticut will change over first around 10 PM tonight with the transition
continuing SE through New London by 2 AM Wednesday. A coating to around an inch
of snow and sleet is possible. Another
concern is black ice with the combination of wet roads and subfreezing
temperatures. You may want to plan on leaving yourself some extra time for the
commute on Wednesday.

heavier jacket nearby through the afternoon.

warming will get underway the rest of the week, peaking near 60 degrees by this
weekend.
