A Winter Storm warning has been issued for Connecticut ahead of this weekend's storm.

Significant impacts are expected, delaying travel, due to plowable snow Friday night into Saturday morning.

A snowstorm will sweep into western Connecticut Friday evening and continue into early Saturday. Snow is expected to begin shortly after 6 p.m. Friday, tapering off around 7 a.m. Saturday, with a few lingering flurries possible.

By midday Saturday, sunshine will break through, setting the stage for a brighter, brisk afternoon.

Most areas can anticipate 4 to 8 inches of accumulation, though a narrow, intense snow band could push totals to 8 to 10 inches in isolated spots. While pinpointing these bands in advance is challenging, the setup suggests the potential.

With temperatures holding in the mid-20s, the snow will be light and fluffy, perfect for quick accumulation.

Roads may remain slick even after the storm ends, so use caution if you’re heading out Saturday afternoon.
