Hartford-area residents are waking to clear skies and temperatures in the mid-30s Monday, with patchy frost possible through 9 a.m. The chill is a brief opening act: sunshine will push the afternoon high near 68 degrees, with west winds.

The National Weather Service expects a quiet evening, with partly cloudy skies and a low around 42. Winds will turn northwest at 5 to 9 mph overnight, while rain chances remain close to zero.

Cooler Tuesday And A Frosty Wednesday

Tuesday will be sunny but noticeably cooler, with a high near 58 and north winds of 5 to 9 mph. Temperatures could fall to around 32 Tuesday night, followed by widespread frost before 9 a.m. Wednesday.

Wednesday afternoon should rebound to about 60 degrees under sunny skies. Thursday brings another sunny day near 67, and Friday could reach 73 degrees, giving the region one more taste of summer before Halloween weekend.

Dry Weather Holds Through Halloween

Saturday is expected to bring highs in the upper 50s to lower 60s, with no meaningful rain threat. Sunday will remain partly sunny near 65, and Sunday night may bring rain showers.

Connecticut has no weather watches, warnings or advisories in effect, and the broader forecast favors dry conditions through Halloween. Gardeners should keep an eye on the frosty Tuesday night and Wednesday morning temperatures, while everyone else gets a mostly sunny week with a short-lived midweek cooldown.
