Storm Fannie: Final Summation

Please see our previous post for which districts have delays and which ones called the whole thing off. Enjoy that three-day weekend, South County and North Adams! The big mystery is the absence of Pittsfield from the list. We can only surmise that the half day/professional development day gummed up the works for our county's capital.

Technically, we missed the mark on our prediction, but at least we got it wrong in the right direction. Because the past two storms were flubs, we figured we'd lowball this one. In our defense, NOAA has called this storm "atypical" (and climate change is still a myth, right?).

As for the rest of the day, we'll see light snow up to noon, and it may hang on for another hour after that. There are some stronger bands to our east and south, but it doesn't look like they quite have enough oomph to make it to the Berkshires. Total snowfall will approach 7 or 8" inches. The temps will be warming up, so we'll see what that does do our snow fall. It should not turn over to rain today.

Clearing tonight and then actual bona fide sunshine tomorrow--mid to upper 40s. Break out the shorts! Clouds but still warm on Sunday.
