CTFORECAST

Turning now to your forecast with meteorologist Scott Zoff, Scott, what can you tell us? Well, right now, we're dealing with a lot of that notorious fog. We've been seeing a lot of that cloud covered the fog since this morning and really, it's just been a mild day, temperatures peaking around 51 degrees. A few notches above our average high of 48. But right now you can see all this fog. This is Calf Pasture Beach in Norwalk if you can see and visibility is reduced to a mile or less along the Long Island Sound and much of Western Connecticut. So definitely take it slow because we are seeing cloudy skies, fog and showers building into the overnight temperatures will be dropping to around 40 degrees or so milder along the sound. As we are going to be seeing that rain build throughout the morning. The heaviest is going to be midday 10 a.m. to around three o'clock in the afternoon and then things are going to be tapering off from there. So let's break things down. We're gonna see up to a half inch of rain or more along and south of 84 A little bit less to the north of 84 to Litchfield County. Not really going to be expecting any major flooding but still take it slow. The usual spots that see the ponding will be seeing them as we go into your Sunday morning, the rain will get steadier and heavier throughout the morning by 910 o'clock, see those yellows along and south of 84 going to be that from lunchtime. That's when we could see that ponding through the afternoon by 34 o'clock though. Just going to be seeing a few lingering showers areas of fog though will be continuing. Sunday will bring highs in the forties, cloudy skies. A little breezy with that on and off rain, especially from lunchtime into the afternoon.

Team of the Week: Fairfield Ludlowe football

If they're able to pull off the win tonight, they might start building the Mitch Ross statue outside Fairfield Ludlow. The Falcons are the news 12 Connecticut team of the week sponsored by the hospital for special surgery. Almost knocked me over last week. I'm over that. They're 3 to 0 to start the season. Coach Ross says it's the best start in school history. His team scored more than 30 points in each of their games. And last Friday's win against Hampden really opened some eyes across the state. Big one tonight on the home turf when number 10, New Kan comes to town. Ross says his team is excited and prepared for the big test. It's been a long, long time. It's been probably over 50 years since we started 3 to 0. You know, they've accomplished a lot. I'd say the game against Hampden was probably the biggest win against the quality opponent in, in my seven years here. So that was a very substantial win for the kids. So we just keep our nose to the grind stone and keep on plugging away kick off for tonight's game, moved up to 3 45. We'll have highlights on the news at 10 other local sports news around Fairfield County, Patrick Murphy has stepped down as the head baseball coach at Stanford High. After two seasons, we'll see you later tonight with some rainy football highlights. Back to you guys.
