The last two days could not be any more different weatherwise in southwestern Connecticut. Rain continues to fall early this afternoon, and the temperature is 45 degrees F along the Mill River on Brookside Drive in Fairfield, which is the normal high temperature for March 10.
Today marks the seventh day with measured rain this month (58% of days) and the 26th day since April 1 (62% of days) with measured rain in southwestern Connecticut. Here's a look at the Samp Mortar Dam on Brookside Drive in Fairfield.
Yesterday, meanwhile, was just about picture-perfect across the region. The daytime high temperature was 70 degrees, which occurred just after 3 p.m. EDT, and the sky was deep and blue for most of the day.
Today, though, is a different story. Just take a look at the radar as of early this afternoon.
