Heavy Rain, Possible Thunderstorms Forecast for Ledyard

The long-duration significant storm in the forecast will arrive in time for the afternoon and evening commute Tuesday, Feb. 23.

The National Weather Service issued a “Winter Weather Advisory” for northern Fairfield, northern New Haven, Hartford and Tolland counties. No advisories have been posted for the immediate Connecticut coastline and Middlesex County.

• On Wednesday, a half-inch of rain is expected during the day, another inch Wednesday night and the rain ends around noon Thursday. The temps on Wednesday and Thursday may be in the 50s.
