Bye-Bye Snow

Spring-like warmth has returned to Berkshires. We got to 50 degrees at the GSD Home Office today, and with mid-50s readings expected tomorrow--along with over an inch of rain--our cozy foot of snow will be washed out. Alas.

A flood watch is in effect tomorrow into Saturday due to all the rain and melting snow.

The good news is the cold air will not be gone for long. On Sunday morning, you will once again awake to single digits, and the highs on Sunday will struggle to get into the teens. We will see a moderation of the temperatures toward more normal highs and lows as the week progresses, which sets up the conditions for snow.

Speaking of snow, our consultants are suggesting a storm could happen Tuesday night into Wednesday. A classic two-systems-converging storm event might impact the Berkshires. The North American model is stronger on this storm than the European. The North American did pretty well last time around, so this is a good sign.

If all comes to fruition, we could see a 5 to 9-inch blanket on the Berkshires. We will certainly slow our roll on this storm for now, but it has definitely piqued our interest.

The precipitation forecast for Tuesday/Wednesday. Half an inch of precip would yield about half a foot of snow. We like it!

Get out the rain slicker tonight--you're going to need it for the next few days.
