Don’t look now but today may be the best remaining weather day of the year from a temperature standpoint.
Yesterday’s weather was simply amazing too with sunny skies and 70 degrees. We’re headed toward another great almost summer-like day with temps approaching the low to mid 70s for Connecticut, and after today, well reality returns.
It’s quite possibly this is the last day until sometime next spring that we’ll be above 70 degrees. So if you can, head out of work for a walk today or sit outside to eat, or just do something to get yourself outside and enjoy the warm temps before they are gone.
