We've made it to Hump Day so I thought we all deserved to see some goats eating pumpkins. That's all. Enjoy.

Tuesday AM Thoughts. There are still several moving parts with Thursday-Friday storm. Trend is a bit colder, but these low centers are pretty far away and developing late. Periods of raw rain and maybe some wet snow mixed in as it ends. More snow well north of CT. More to come!

Some lovely captures to share with you this Wednesday AA. Diane in New Preston with the steeple, Carol in Niantic with the sunrise, and the same idea with the moon showing up from Heather in Wallingford. Beautiful start to the day!

Is something brewing? We haven't seen a drop of rain in 2+ weeks, but that looks to change by Thursday. There might be something tropical developing to our south and whatever it is might connect with a frontal boundary near us. Maybe it will pour!

Gusty winds, no rain for two weeks, and available fuel means that we have an ELEVATED FIRE DANGER today. Be extra careful with anything that could spark a blaze, including a fire pit this evening.
