Looks like a little sound effect snow trying to fire up along the SE Connecticut coast. Winds are west to southwest at the moment.

Of the mesos available on TT, FV3 and RGEM seem to have the best handle on where there is precipitation right now (18z). Both give a coating to most of us this afternoon. Not saying I believe it, but they are off to a good start.
The water at Kings Point is either right at the freezing point (for western LI Sound salinity) or already frozen. Bridgeport and New Haven are getting close:

I'd be more worried about ice damming than structural issues, unless your house is framed with balsa wood.
Based on the temperature forecast and the amount of snow on my roof, I am worried about ice damming.
I'm going to have to check, but I'm not sure if I've ever had more than 10:1 (if that) in a 10" or greater snowfall. It might be a consequence of being surrounded by water, and sometimes the wind.
Back bays are easy. I want to see the sound freeze again. That was very cool in 2015. Posed out on the ice with my wife and it looked like we were standing on the Antarctic ice sheet.
