The wider storm
A strong area of low pressure shifted northeast through the eastern Great Lakes Region on January 13, 2024. This sent a warm front, quickly followed by a cold front, across Southern Connecticut during the morning hours. The resulting strong pressure gradient helped produce high winds across the area during this period.
