Wintry Mix for Sunday

Just a heads up that we could be seeing a messy day on Sunday with rain, freezing rain, sleet and snow all possible from late Saturday night and on through the day on Sunday. It sounds like a great day to be inside and binge that new favorite show or hunker down for some TV sports.

If this storm were to occur in January, we'd be talking about a class coastal storm, replete with cyclogenesis. But because there isn't much cold air in place, it's going to be mainly a rain and wet snow event.

The most we'll see is 3-4 inches in the higher elevations, but realistically we'll see a coating or up to an inch in most locations in the Berkshires. Travel could be slippery Sunday morning and then later in the day as the rain changes to a wet snow. There is zero threat this storm will carry into Monday morning and affect the morning commute.

As for our next chance for measurable snow, we're not seeing anything heading our way in the next two weeks. We will have a strong rain and wind storm come through on Wednesday night and into Thanksgiving. Conditions will be very blustery on Turkey Day as the storm pulls off the coast and departs.

Take it slow tomorrow if the snow starts to pile up, and enjoy the rest of the weekend.
