Frosty Start to Tuesday Morning

Cooler air has arrived.

Temperatures range from below freezing in some parts of Connecticut to 40 degrees in others this morning before the weather starts to warm up today.

Officials in Bantam said it was only 28 degrees as of 5:40 a.m., while temperatures in Torrington are around 31 and 35 in Norwich.

That means that residents in parts of the state will have to scrape the windows on their vehicle before heading out the door this morning.
