Updated the details based on the latest analysis.
- Rain develops tonight & becomes heavier & steadier during the predawn hours. Lows 35-40.
- Rain, heavy at times Friday with an increasing northeast to north wind.
- 1.5″-3.5″ of rain likely. A flood watch in effect statewide.
- Wind gusts to 40+mph inland and 50+ along the coast by late Friday/Friday night, with peak gusts of 60-70 mph possible along coastal New London County. High wind Watch up for southern CT, except a High Wind Warning for New London County.
- Rain will change to wet snow at times Friday – especially across parts of western CT & the northern hills. All areas change to wet snow Friday night. Accumulations are difficult to estimate with this storm but at this time look to me like 1″-3″, except 3″-6″ possible across the northeast hills and 6″ or more possible across some of the higher elevations of northwestern CT. Eastern, coastal areas could see an inch or less.
