Chilly changes ahead for Sunday after record-setting warmth Saturday

NBCUniversal Media, LLC

The warm temperatures from the last couple of days continued on Saturday - creating new records at two Connecticut airports.

The temperature at Bradley Airport in Windsor Locks reached 84 degrees Saturday, beating the old record high of 81, set back in 1919. In Bridgeport, the temperature reached 75, beating the old record of 72, set in 2010.

A cold front moved through the state Saturday evening. More clouds and a wind shift to the north (and perhaps a brief shower) can be expected as the front passes through and after it moves out.

The front will bring dramatically colder temperatures for Sunday.

Some areas will be more than 30 degrees cooler on Sunday afternoon vs Saturday.

Along with sharply colder air moving in, expect rain to develop during Sunday afternoon.
