Heavy Snow February 27, 2023 – February 28, 2023 · Southern Fairfield, Connecticut

What the National Weather Service wrote

Heavy snow fell across much of the southern half of the county, especially further west. A trained spotter 6.4 inches in Weston, and 6.0 inches in Fairfield, and a Cocorahs observer reported 6.1 inches in Norwalk, with a public report of 6.0 inches at 4 SSE Easton and 5.5 inches at 2 SW Bridgeport.

The wider storm

Weak high pressure and a marginally cold air mass was locked into the northeast with blocking to the north across Eastern Canada, while low pressure over the Midwest moved east and redeveloped off the Northern Mid Atlantic coast. This led to the first widespread accumulating snowfall across the CWA.
