Elite Gymnastics and Big Laughs Define the Weekend
The weather is shaping up for a great weekend, starting with a beautiful and warm Friday before the clouds roll in. With the U.S. Classic in town and major conventions underway, the Hartford metro is alive with energy. This is a fantastic time to lean into the high-signal events happening across our region.
Friday is the highlight of the weekend with warm 86 degree temperatures and clear skies. Drizzle moves in on Saturday followed by heavier moisture on Sunday, so aim for indoor activities after your Friday afternoon plans.
