Average low is cooler in Bridgeport, just ocean moderates the extremes.

Actually average low is cooler in Clarksville vs Bridgeport (45.2 F vs 46.2 F) though obviously daytime highs are much cooler in Bridgeport.


Average low is colder in November also, and about the same in December.

Yup.. luckily I am between Danbury and Bridgeport where I can get involved in some of the extreme. Check out DXR data. Only since 1998 but u can see the difference being off the coast in CT and at 350'. (Im at 260)

Danbury and Bridgeport only 31 miles apart.

I think the difference is more of Coast vs. Inland rather than a distance or elevation difference.

Had a strong thunderstorm around 6 PM with frequent cloud to ground lightning. I didn't really get than much rain though. Only 0.20 inches.

A more intense storm to the SW with a severe t'storm warning moving towards Lake Charles.

Kinda Agree although the distance from the coast is what makes the inland difference and elevation matters as well for some aspects. Danbury will get snow stickage first vs Redding which is away from the coast but lower elevation and nearby Danbury. Its pretty fascinating driving in winter here. You can go from rain to snow in matter of a 15-30 minute drive and see the transition.

Danbury average annual snowfall is about 55". Bridgeport is 28" just to give you an idea on the difference there.
