CT Weather: More Storms, Rain In The Forecast

The weekend weather forecast for Connecticut features a chance of showers and thunderstorms today and Saturday but the good news is that Sunday now looks dry and the sun may even poke its head out. The other good news is that it doesn't appear that the weekend will be a washout, which was a concern earlier in the week.

But after a brief return to sun on Sunday it's back to rain to begin the work week as rain is expected both Monday and Tuesday of next week.

Connecticut just can't seem to enjoy a nice stretch of spring weather. Another noticeable chance is that today and Saturday will be very hot and humid while the temps drop into the high 60s to near 70 degrees on Sunday.
