Snow Expected for Ledyard's Morning Commute; Hazardous Weather Outlook Issued

This isn't the storm of the century but the weather service cautions snow will impact Friday morning's commute.

The National Weather Service issued a hazardous weather outlook for all of Fairfield, New Haven, Middlesex and New London counties for late Thursday into early Friday.

The advisory states: “Light snow late tonight into Friday morning will likely result in snow-covered roads and hazardous travel conditions for the Friday morning commute.”

The Detailed Forecast

  • Thursday: Mostly sunny with temps in the mid 30s, but it will feel much colder with the wind chill factor making it feel like between 15-25 degrees.
  • Thursday night: Snow begins after 3 a.m. and a half inch of snow is possible by daybreak.
  • Friday: Light snow continues until around noon with an additional inch of snow possible. Temps will only rise into the mid 30s and it will again feel much colder with the windchill factor.

New London County may see two inches or more of snow, which would be the highest accumulation statewide for this light snowstorm.

By next Tuesday and Wednesday, the temperature will rise to 50-60 degrees.
