Winter Storm Watch: Tuesday/Wednesday (Jan 29-30)

Overnight, the National Weather Service announced a Winter Storm Watch for the Berkshires and surrounding areas, especially to our north and northeast.

The current expected onset is around 1 PM Tuesday, and the storm should end around 4 AM Wednesday. Potentially, say the experts, we will see 6 to 10 inches of snow. The Berkshires would be on the lower end of that prediction, especially in South County.

We don't like the timing of this storm one bit, but we do like the more aggressive number of inches predicted to fall.

We'll check in with our usual cast of knowledgeable types throughout the day and deliver a more complete report in the early afternoon. But here's one map to feast on in the interim.
