Timeline For Thunderstorms Released For CT: Here's What To Know
Major weather changes are forecast for Connecticut. Here are the new details.
The National Weather Service said Connecticut may see thunderstorms between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. Sunday.
Rain is forecast to fall for much of the day and night on Sunday with up to 2 inches of rain possible, according to forecast updates.
"In addition to rain that could be heavy at times, it will be cool with highs in the 60s," said WFSB 3 TV meteorologists. "Although expected rainfall amounts look overall lower than last weekend’s system, there’s still the potential for 1-2″ or more of rainfall - particularly in SW CT. Because of this, isolated flooding/ponding can’t be ruled out tomorrow."
