Heavy Frost & Freeze Possible Across Parts of New York & Connecticut
11/09/24 12:37pm EST
Good afternoon everyone. Much cooler air has infiltrated the Northeast, with freeze warnings posted overnight for parts of Long Island and Connecticut. Highs in the mid 50’s today will drop down into the near-freezeing/below freezing realm, prompting those warnings by the National Weather Service. Aside from that, we have some rain on the way for tomorrow night, which will help lessen the fire risk.
Our big story remains the heavy showers and thunderstorms down into the Gulf States, Mississippi Valley, and eventually into the Ohio River Valley. A long line of heavy showers and thunderstorms is slowly marching to the east/northeast across parts of Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Look for that line to get into the Indiana and Ohio area later today and tonight.
While we don’t have widespread severe weather to report, we could see some isolated instances of stronger storms. As the afternoon heating takes hold and storms bump into areas that saw sunshine for part of the day, we could see some locally damaging winds, frequent lightning, small hail, and torrential rain.
