CONNECTICUT — As light snow, mixed precipitation and plain rain fall across the state on Thursday, we’re already looking toward our next storm, and this one looks to be significant.

Beginning Saturday night, moderate to heavy snow is forecast for Connecticut and there may be a changeover to mixed precipitation and possibly plain rain too.

But this storm, as of now, looks to include significantly more snow than Thursday’s storm.

The National Weather Service has released its initial snow accumulation estimates for the upcoming weekend storm.

For coastal towns in southern Connecticut, snow is forecast to begin Saturday evening and 3 to 7 inches of snow is predicted. The snow should end by midday Sunday, according to the weather service.

For inland sections of southern Connecticut, 5 to 9 inches of snow is forecast.

In northern Connecticut, 4 to 8 inches of snow is forecast with snow beginning after 10 p.m. Saturday and ending around noon on Sunday.

“Saturday is dry during the daylight hours with highs in the mid-30s,” said WFSB 3 TV meteorologists. “Cloud cover increases as another system approaches Connecticut prompting another *First Alert Weather Day* for a variety of precipitation types. The latest track of this storm is coming in colder, therefore snowier. So, as snow begins to fall Saturday night, it becomes steady and at times moderate to heavy. Similar to today’s storm, we anticipate snow to transition to a mix Sunday morning (perhaps to rain along the shoreline before ending). There is some uncertainty surrounding when the switch takes place, also when it all winds down. Given we’re still several days out, expect fluctuations in the forecast.” (Read more at WFSB 3 TV).

And we’re not done with the snow, either, as more snow is forecast on Tuesday night and Wednesday.
