Snow in Santa's Bag?

Good news, ladies and germs! Conditions are now favorable for a white Christmas. Once we get past the driving rain and wind of the spawn of storm Draco, we should settle into a pattern that will bring to mind this thing called "winter" that we used to have a few years ago.

Snow showers are in the forecast for tonight, tomorrow, and perhaps even on Sunday. The temps will drop down around freezing, and we could get into the teens at night time, which will be great for freezing up the ponds and lakes.

Monday will be dry during the day. Old Man Winter, however, could redeem himself big time by following through on this latest prediction from NOAA:

EVEN THE BERKSHIRES HAVE AN EXCELLENT CHANCE OF HAVING AN INCH (OR
BETTER) OF SNOW ON THE GROUND CHRISTMAS DAY.

Well, wouldn't that be special!

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Better yet--and this needs to stay just between us and you--we might have heard the word "nor'easter" whispered the other night over at the big meteorologists' holiday shindig in Albany. We can't say exactly who whispered these words, but "they" were talking about a Wednesday into Thursday scenario. Mum's the word until we can gather more information.
