Winter Weather Advisory Issued For All Of Connecticut

Surprise, surprise, the National Weather Service this morning issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Sunday as snow, sleet and rain are expected to accumulate across Connecticut. Travel on Sunday morning may be difficult.

This storm was originally thought to be largely a rain event, especially for Southern Connecticut, but now the entire state is predicted to see some wintry weather. Northern parts of the state will see the most snow and sleet accumulation and all of the advisories expire by mid-afternoon Sunday.

On the bright side, Monday looks nice, sunny with temps into the mid 40s.

Here are the details on the advisories via the National Weather Service:

Southern Fairfield: Mixed precipitation expected. Total sleet and snow accumulations of up to one inch and ice accumulations of a light glaze expected. From 4 AM to 9 AM EDT Sunday

will change to a period of light freezing rain by Sunday afternoon and then eventually all rain.
