This weekend is likely more just showers versus a widespread steadier rain. There will probably be a narrow axis, however, where there is some steadier/heavier rain but that will likely be confined to somewhere in NNE.

But drought!!!

What a recovery…total 180 from the morning. Pretty awesome outside

Southington is def not SW CT I wouldn't even consider Waterbury as being in SW CT...probably more so getting towards Southbury

Heat kicked on this morning

Don’t speak that into existence

In Enfield at my nieces for a cookout. Absolutely awful out. Wish when ours have held onto the weather we had in the morning. Wasn’t great but better than this

If it’s raining where you are, GWDLT. Actually not bad here if you throw on a light sweatshirt

I agree, but trying to be a bit optimistic But anytime you see an omega-block like look...always prepare for crap

Yeah after next Wednesday things could get back to mehhh for the weekend...go figure

Maybe another shot for some locally strong storms as long as the front times right

Tuesday and Wednesday should be quite warm next week (though obviously nothing like this week). Wednesday though we'll see a front moving south so there will be a gradient within the region so northern areas may only be a one day ordeal.

do you have a YouTube account? can upload there and post the link here

Nothing line the unison hum of ACs on the block. It’s like a Mozart symphony

This is a great point.

Not looking forward to having to wear jeans tomorrow. Can’t wait until we are ripping 73+ dews. Soon enough

There were a few of us who mentioned we would see a flip to significantly warmer weather (even some heat and humidity) moving into the second half of May

What a stretch this week, called beautifully too back at the end of April.

HRRR has been all over the place so can probably toss that. Interesting how the 3km NAM at 12z was very similar evolution to the HRRR yesterday. There is good convergence along the shoreline so I would not be surprised if things took off a bit as the front nears

was unsure if they would go with the watch or not. I could certainly see so a bit southwest but might be a stretch for southern CT...although no choice but to throw entire counties under the watch.

you might be in a good spot in Fairfield. Looks like greatest potential is right along the shoreline. Most of the action though may end up crossing the Sound

Watch is out until 9:00 PM

you should be good...timing for anything there is after 4-5 PM...probably more towards 5-7

The 7z run knocked BDL down to 92 for today but gotta say...the NBM did quite well for yesterday's temps. In the case of today, the only thing I can think of is there was a good bit of guidance perhaps slower with the cold front. I want to read more into what changes were made with NBMv5...I briefly did this a few weeks ago and there was mention this version was even more accurate with temperatures. I think the NBM may have a more "accurate" mixing capability versus traditional MOS and also isn't as scaled or tied into climo.

I’ll take it too… if the 75-80 are dews
