By Leave a Comment

Connecticut will have rain on Thanksgiving Day, according to meteorologist Brad Field, who relayed the details in his weekly podcast with co-host Dan Lovallo. The rain will actually usher in above normal temperatures through the holiday weekend, according to Field.

Enjoy the changes, Field notes, because the weather will make a dramatic turn on Dec. 1, when Connecticut and the region can expect substantial rainfall. The rain will serve as a prelude to a shift in the weather pattern. How that will impact the state’s weather is detailed by Field in the podcast.

Enjoy the unseasonably, mild weather on Oct. 22 through 24, because it is about to change in Connecticut, according to meteorologist Brad Field. In his weekly podcast with co-host Dan Lovallo, Field outlines the dramatic weather turn that earmarks the future.

The weather pattern for the state will undergo a noticeable change by Oct. 25, after an extended period of moderating temperatures. Gone will be the 70-degree days, replaced by more seasonable temperatures and some much needed rain.

Field outlines it all, while also reminding his podcast audience that on Oct. 29, he will be releasing his always popular long range winter forecast.

Connecticut is in store for some much needed rain with a Friday drencher, according to meteorologist Brad Field. In his weekly podcast with co-host Dan Lovallo, Field predicts that a substantial amount of rainfall will hit the region from Oct. 16 into Oct. 17, with heavy, overnight rain highlighting the soaker.

Where is the storm coming from and what follows the heavy rain are all discussed in the podcast. The co-hosts also discuss what the weather will probably produce over the second-half of October into November. As for the reduced amount of day light, that has major impact on our weather too, as Field and Lovallo discuss.

Connecticut will be in the path of Isaias, according to meteorologist Brad Field. In a special storm podcast with co-host Dan Lovallo, Field says Tuesday – particularly Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday night, Aug. 4 – will be stormy, as Isaias passes over Connecticut. Damaging winds and heavy rains are expected.

Wind gusts could hit 50 or 60 MPH – depending on location – and rainfall totals could reach 6 inches in some areas. After the storm passes, low temperatures by Wednesday, Aug. 5 into Thursday could dip into the 50s, according to Field.

Weekend rain possible

Much-needed weekend rain could be a part of Connecticut’s weekend, according to meteorologist Brad Field in his weekly podcast with co-host Dan Lovallo. The state is nearing drought-like levels, after an extended dry spell, as Field and Lovallo discuss in the podcast.

The weekend will not be a total washout by any stretch, according to Field, but that does not mean the region will not be hit with some storms, as a warm front passes through Connecticut on Saturday, followed by a cold front on Sunday. As for the coming week, there are conflicts as to what the mid-week weather might be like, but Field details that, as well as taking an early peak at the 4th of July weekend weather.

Saturday, March 28, will be the better of the two weekend days, according to meteorologist Brad Field in his weekly podcast with co-host Dan Lovallo. A cold rain is expected to settle in for Sunday, March 29. The weather, extending into the last week of March and the first week of April will also be unsettled, with a one-and-10 chance we could even get a major snowstorm, according to Field.

In the podcast, Field peaks into what the early portion of April will look like, and it might be a good idea to have an umbrella and coat nearby. Field and Lovallo also look back at the April 1, 1997 snowstorm, which struck Connecticut.

It appears the Easter weekend will start off wet and even Easter Sunday services could be hindered by some showers, according to meteorologist Brad Field in his latest podcast.

Field says an active weather pattern is making for some wet weather periods over the next few days. Talking with co-host Dan Lovallo, Field states the pattern will persist into even next week with temperatures averaging at or a bit below normal.

We are also entering the “severe” weather season, when “watches” and “warnings” become part of the weather conversation. Field discusses that as well. Meanwhile he and Lovallo review the first “Brad Field Weather On The Road” event.
