Wintry Week-ender

Greetings, Flake Followers. Winter is drawing nigh, and it's time to talk about a storm for Thursday night and Friday.

We have a coastal storm that will reach the Berkshires in the evening hours on Thursday. There will be plenty of cold air in place in the Northeast, and we may see snow all the way down to DC, Virginia, and New Jersey from this system on Thursday.

For the Berkshires, right now we're seeing a forecasted snowfall range between 2 and 6 inches by the time it ends on Friday. There is a distinct possibility that it will start as snow, transition to sleet and rain between 2 and 5 AM, and then return back to snow as the storm exists.

Thanks, Accuweather.

For this reason, we think Superintendents should get their protocols in place lest they need to call in a delay on Friday. especially if they run the schools in high elevation towns and in Northern Berkshire county. This is not a blockbuster storm--we don't think it will be a clean sweep for delays for the County--but it's powerful enough to alter the traditional timing of the morning bus runs for some students.

Stay informed. And don't be afraid to follow us on Twitter (@GreylockSnowDa1), Facebook (@GreylockSnowDay), and Instagram (greylock_snow_day).
