Next School Alert - Monday Night and Tuesday Morning

Students in central Connecticut, be prepared for a full day of class on Tuesday, but listen for that text from your school in case of a late opening.

Teachers, have alternate plans in case of a late opening.

A warm front is advancing northward right now, and today's freezing temperatures will disappear tomorrow.

Of course, when warm air floats up over denser colder air, it cools and we will get rain.  Could be a lot of rain Sunday night and Monday.  This will have no affect on school openings, as the temperature will be close to 50 degrees F.

But then, Monday night, another cold front will push through, tossing the warm air up to cool and drop the rest of the water, possibly in the form of snow flurries.

And then, the temperatures will DROP.  From Monday afternoon to Tuesday morning, the temperature will drop about 30 to 40 degrees!  Low Monday when you wake up will be around 10 degrees F.  All of that wet snow, and all of those puddles in the road, will become frozen solid.

Roads may be slippery Tuesday morning, which is why some towns will have a late school opening.
