Danbury Work Week Forecast: Here Comes the Sun!

DANBURY, CT — After a week of hiding the sun returned on Sunday afternoon. And the good news is it will remain for awhile before it goes back to hiding just in time for part of the weekend.

But the work week forecast is better across the board. There will be plenty of sun and the temps will approach 70 degrees for much of the week. Last week we were stuck in the 50s for the most part and dealing with showers all week.

Here is the detailed 7-day forecast via the National Weather Service:

• Monday: Mostly sunny as the day progresses with temps near 70 degrees. It will be windy with gusts approaching 25 mph at times.
• Monday night: Chilly with temps near 40 on the shoreline and mid 30s in interior sections of Connecticut.
• Tuesday: Sunshine, temps near 70 degrees.
• Tuesday night: Not as cold with temps in the mid 40s.
