A Miller B type storm brought rain which changed over to wet snow across Interior Southern CT. The heaviest snow totals were mostly driven by elevation across far northwestern Fairfield as temperatures were right at freezing. Most places closer to the coast had considerably less snow, which was mainly on colder surfaces. Locations to the east across the interior had accumulating snow but amounts were below warning criteria.
