☁️ A cloudy and cool Sunday across Connecticut
Sunday, June 15, has brought unseasonably cool weather to much of Connecticut, with temperatures topping out around 70°F (21°C). While this marks a slight uptick from Saturday, the air remains well below seasonal averages. Despite the cloud cover and chill, the day is expected to remain mostly dry, thanks to a high-pressure system dominating the region.
Southern Connecticut may experience a brief, stray shower, especially in the afternoon, but most of the state will enjoy precipitation-free conditions. The atmosphere is moist, keeping clouds locked in overhead, though some breaks of sun are likely — particularly inland.
