Light Snow May Sweep Through Norwalk In Time For Afternoon Commute

FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. — is it too cold to snow? Nope. Temperatures will "heat up" across Fairfield County on Friday — from the teens into the mid-20s anyway. And there's a good chance of a light snowfall just in time to mess up the commute. 

There's a 50 percent chance of snow for Friday across Fairfield County — but just an inch or two is expected.

The National Weather Service has issued a "hazardous weather outlook," calling for light snow to develop late Friday afternoon and continue into the evening. It calls for one to two inches of snow forecast, which could result in slippery conditions during the evening commute.

On Friday night, there is a 50 percent chance of snow before 10 p.m. It will be cloudy, with a steady temperature of about 25 degrees, and wind chill values between 15 and 20.
