Hartford is starting Wednesday near 37 degrees under clear skies, but the chilly opening will not last. Sunshine and a southwest breeze will push temperatures toward 64 by afternoon, making for a quick warm-up across the city.
Frosty Start Gives Way To Sunshine
A Frost Advisory was scheduled to remain in effect until 9 a.m. Wednesday for Hartford and other parts of northern Connecticut, with frost possible on sensitive plants. The National Weather Service expects mostly clear skies tonight, with temperatures falling to around 51 and south winds between 6 and 10 mph.
Wednesday's afternoon breeze will stay manageable but noticeable, reaching around 12 mph from the southwest. The latest forecast is a meaningful shift from Tuesday's frost-focused outlook, which Hoodline reported as the region prepared for its coldest start of the week.
