A weak disturbance from Canada known as an "Alberta Clipper" will bring cold weather and the potential for minor snow accumulations Saturday night into Sunday morning. Cold air is in place with this storm and there is a chance for "fluffy" fast accumulating snow; however, dry air will sit just to our north and could limit the intensity and overall total snowfall.

Today is sunny and breezy early with less wind later in the day. Highs in the mid-30s, but feels like mid-20s. Overnight tonight, winds will be calm and temperatures will drop into the mid-20s by Saturday morning.

Saturday is quiet during the daytime with mostly cloudy skies and high temperatures in the mid and upper 30s. Snow showers develop in the evening and could be widespread after 9PM. Light snow showers will continue Saturday night with a coating of snow expected and more than 1 inch of snow possible in spots. Overnight lows in the 20s.

Sunday is snowy early in the morning with a coating of snow expected, but locally higher amounts possible from overnight. Snow will taper off before sunrise in Litchfield County but could continue until 9 a.m. in in Fairfield and New Haven counties. Temperatures will remain cold throughout the day with highs below freezing in most neighborhoods.

Monday and Tuesday are cold and dry. High temperatures are near 30 degrees. Monday morning is in the 20s and Tuesday morning is only in the teens.

A brief warm up is on the way mid-week. Temperatures will rise into the 40s with a few rain showers.
