Governor Lamont Urges Caution as Snow Approaches Connecticut Thursday Morning

2/05/2025

(HARTFORD, CT) – Governor Ned Lamont today is urging Connecticut residents to exercise caution ahead of a weather event that is expected to bring a wintery mix of precipitation that will impact the state on the morning of Thursday, February 6, 2025.

Current models indicate that precipitation will begin around 7:00 a.m. with periods of light to moderate snow, which will gradually transition to sleet and freezing rain around mid-morning, and then conclude in the early afternoon.

“This is New England, and every winter we get weather events like this that require everyone to use caution if they plan on doing any travel,” Governor Lamont said. “We are closely monitoring the weather, and our crews have already been pre-treating the roads and are ready to deploy as precipitation begins. As always, I implore everyone to continue monitoring the forecast, and if you travel, use caution, drive slow, and leave room for the plows to do their jobs.”

The Connecticut Department of Transportation’s fleet of more than 600 snowplows and specialized snow removal equipment is ready to deploy across the state. Crews are on standby and will remain active until the roads are clear of snow and ice.
