Improving weather ahead

Much-needed rain fell across the state the last few days, including 6.96 inches in Southington and 2.56 inches in Windsor Locks. The rain is over, and improvement is not far away.

Wednesday will be downright gorgeous, with temperatures in the 70s and tons of sunshine.
Dew points will be in the 40s and 50s, meaning there won’t be any humidity whatsoever!

A high pressure system moves off to the southeast of southern New England on Thursday and Friday, and that means a return flow from the south or southwest. Both days will be mostly cloudy with the chance for a shower.

A cold front comes through early Saturday, but the shower chance has been removed from the forecast! It should be gorgeous, with mostly sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s.

A big high pressure system will build in to close the weekend on Sunday, providing sunshine and temperatures in the 70s.

The pattern turns a bit unsettled early next week, with the chance for p.m. showers and storms on both Monday and Tuesday.
