I've read on this board that weather patterns gravitate to extremes.  Cold and deep snowpacks draw in storms in the winter.  High heat and humidity build Bermuda highs in summer.  This seems particularly true of a portion of CT.  Next we'll hear that those same summer conditions help pull strengthening tropical storms to this latitude.  And lo and behold, some evidence that this might be true.  From the 11 am discussion on Tropical Storm Danny ;) :

 

"Later in the forecast period, large- scale models are in agreement that there should be some re- strengthening of the subtropical ridge, which would result in Danny's moving at a slightly faster forward speed. The cyclone's heading late in the forecast period should largely be a function of the depth of the system. A weaker Danny would move westward faster, as is the case in the ECMWF solution. A stronger system, like the one that the GFS shows, would tend to gain more latitude, as it's pulled polarward by high heat and humidity in Connecticut."
