3:12pm–#Bridgeport Connecticut–#Trumbull Connecticut–I have received messages of a power outage in the Sylvan Avenue Whiskey Hill area of Bridgeport and Trumbull Police have just said power is out on Old Town Road area and traffic lights are out in the area.  EMS just reported Islandbrook and Chopsey Hill in Bridgeport is out.  Remember, if the lights are out at an intersection you need to treat it as a 4 way stop.  Trumbull Police just reported that UI is aware of the power out, a circuit out according to radio reports and the power should be restored within the hour.

K-9 Graduation

A graduation for K-9 was recently held at Fairfield Police Department for Fairfield, Trumbull, Derby and Seymour.  Fairfield Police Chief Gary MacNamara said K-9’s make our department better.  First Selectman Michael Tetreau agreed, citing K-9 Ruger’s at his retirement ceremony a few months back.  K-9 Ruger had to retire over health issues.   Frank Reda from Superior K-9 said the benefit is teamwork, that each town will share the dogs and the same training allows police  K-9 to “plug and play”, that is each officer and K-9 knows what is expected.

 

The graduates were Fairfield Officer Kevin Wells with K-9 Jager, Fairfield Officer Evan Kaesmann with Maverick, Trumbull Officer Richard Carlson with Cyrus, Trumbull Officer Gregory Lee with Storm, Seymour Officer Matthew Butler with K-9 Rex and Derby Ambulance Rescue Firefighter David Lenart with K-9 Ponch.

Is winter over?? The Weatherdogs chime in…

That maybe the questions asked to us Weatherdogs over the next few days but our answer is a big fat NO! You will start to see a lot of hyping and chatting going on with other weather sources about what some may call a huge storm for next week… but this is what we can tell you as of today.

A model consensus and almost total agreement as of this morning is showing us that all the ingredients for what could potentially be a good sized East Coast Storm for next week will be in place. Now before we get bombarded with questions it is way too early to do much of any type of forecast. There will be changes every model run over the next 5-6 days. We will have a nice little break in the winter weather action to recharge our batteries. For our landscaping and DOT friends take these next 5 days to rest up, fix and clean up any equipment that might need it.
Next Wednesday and Thursday is the time frame as of today. If we were to show you the model output for snow totals it would be an injust and not fair. Just know we are closely monitoring the potential for a storm mid to late next week.
For all our weather geek friends… yes that’s you.. yes you the one who just stopped reading our post and went and looked at the model snow fall potential please take those model images for a grain of salt. There will be plenty of changes to those pretty colors on the map in the next 5 days.

We are closely monitoring the potential for a storm. Please follow us on Facebook at Valley Shore Weatherdogs for more up to date information and posts!

Have a great day!    Tom and Kevin

Dangerous Cold

Good early Saturday morning…

These are some of the warning headlines from the NWS this morning. This will be by far the colds temps we have seen in the last 5-10 years. Heed the warnings… the only good thing is it only lasts for 36 hours and then we will see this polar air exit stage right.

Lots of model agreement and disagreement for the Early week storm. Hopefully by late tonight or early tomorrow we should have a better idea of what will happen.

Stay warm!!  Tom and Kevin
