Rainfall totals: How much rain the Nor'easter brought Connecticut
CONNECTICUT (WTNH) — Some parts of Connecticut got almost 3 inches of rain as a powerful Nor'easter delivered heavy rain and local flooding across the eastern half of the state this week.
Eastern Connecticut experiences May Nor-easter flooding
The heavy rains meant flooded streets and parking lots in some areas Thursday, including a parking lot in New London and a chunk of parking at the Mystic VFW.
The following totals represent rainfall in the 48 hours prior to Friday morning.
The storm is still throwing clouds and a shower threat back through Connecticut Friday, with on and off light rain and chilly with highs in the 50s.
Slowly improving through Memorial Day
We're expecting an isolated shower or two on Saturday, with most of the day on the dry side and still cool too. Sunday looks mainly dry and milder with Memorial Day being the best weather day over the holiday weekend.

Hot and dry weather this weekend
Drier weather will continue to move into New Mexico into this weekend. Storm chances will still be possible Friday afternoon in far eastern New Mexico. That includes another threat of severe weather. Temperatures will continue a warming trend across the state Friday. On Saturday, only a spotty shower or two is likely in northeast New Mexico, but on Sunday, more isolated storms are possible in northern and eastern New Mexico. Temperatures will again continue to warm up through the weekend, with Sunday being the hottest day for most. More moisture will move into eastern New Mexico Monday, bringing a better chance for showers and thunderstorms up to the northern mountains as well. Outflow from those storms will push moisture as far west as the Continental Divide Tuesday morning. This will bring a more widespread chance for storms Tuesday afternoon. Rain chances move back into eastern parts of the state Wednesday. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Rain ends, sun breaks out Saturday afternoon
We have a rainy start to Saturday as a cold front and low pressure system works through the region, but have no fear! The weekend does not look like a wash out! By afternoon our winds will begin to shift to the Northwest allowing for dry air to filter in from the west leaving us with a partly sunny finish to the day. There could be an isolated spot shower or two working southeast during the afternoon, otherwise temperatures climb to the middle and upper 70's. We are watching for some additional wildfire smoke to pass through the region, especially close to the ground, leaving to unhealthy air quality especially in the counties highlighted in gray! Sunday features partly to mostly sunny skies, and temperatures climbing into the upper 70's Have a great weekend! -Skytracker Chief Meteorologist Haley Bouley Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
