Weather Alert: Potential Storms This Afternoon
Today, residents are experiencing warm and muggy conditions, with temperatures expected to reach the mid to upper 70s—slightly above the average for mid-May. However, as the day progresses, the risk of scattered thunderstorms increases, particularly in the northern parts of Litchfield and Hartford counties, which face a Level 2 slight risk for severe weather. Wind gusts capable of causing damage and potential hail are the main concerns, while the rest of the state is under a Level 1 marginal risk.
Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy the mostly dry daytime, but should remain vigilant and check the News 8 app for updates on incoming storms. Tonight, the chance of showers or storms continues until midnight, with mild lows in the upper 50s.
Tomorrow is expected to bring more comfortable weather, with high temperatures in the upper 60s to low 70s and some cloud cover. The week ahead looks to start sunny but will turn unsettled mid to late week, so stay tuned for continual updates on changing weather patterns.
