WEATHER UPDATE: Stormy and Foggy Forecast For West Hartford

The good news is the stormy weather held off and gave us an amazing day on Sunday, but now that the work week is upon us the weather looks to be getting stormy in Connecticut.

The weather for most of Monday will be fine. Up north in Hartford and Tolland counties it will actually be sunny for most of the day, but then there is a chance of thunderstorms after 7 p.m. and fog is expected to roll in late Monday too.

More showers and storms are likely on Tuesday, too.

For Fairfield, New Haven, Middlesex, and New London counties the skies will remain mainly gray on Monday but showers and thunderstorms are likely after 10 p.m. The winds will pick up this afternoon gusting up to 29 mph.

Strong storms could produce hail, heavy rain, and gusty winds, the National Weather Service writes in its Hazardous Weather Outlook, which is specifically for Tuesday afternoon for Fairfield, New Haven, Middlesex and New London counties.
