NBC Connecticut's meteorologists have issued a First Alert for a winter storm on Friday.
The First Alert includes all of Connecticut.
A storm system will bring light to moderate rain to the state on Thursday. As the storm system moves through the region a cold front will move down from the north. This will cause the rain to transition to a wintry mix of freezing rain, sleet, and snow as we head into Friday morning and Friday afternoon.
