Windsor Locks, East Windsor's 7-Day Forecast Includes Plenty of Sun, Temps Near 80, and a Chance of Rain

Summer feels like it’s just around the corner as temperatures on Monday will reach the low-80s. High 70s also are forecast for Tuesday.

One month ago it was snowing at this time, which is hard to believe.

The weather this week looks great, the only day that will be less than ideal is Tuesday when rain showers are possible.

The rest of the week looks amazing with plenty of sunshine, temps in the low 70s and the early Mother’s Day forecast for Sunday has a chance of rain but temperatures in the high-70s.

The National Weather Service does have a “Special Weather Statement” in effect for Monday for an elevated fire weather risk.

According to the bulletin, the elevated fire weather potential is for the afternoon and evening hours.

It states:

“With warm temperatures and low dewpoints… dry conditions are expected today across northeast Connecticut. Relative humidity values could drop as low as 20 percent.

“This will combine with afternoon southwesterly winds sustained at 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph to yield elevated fire weather risk mainly during the afternoon and evening hours today.”
