Friday Nor'easter: Morning Report

[Delays and closings below.]

The darned dry slot.

The dry slot we were worried about came to fruition and has kept snow totals down. Only 3" on the ground at the GSD Home Office so far.

A little sleet is mixing in right now in the Berkshires (4:30 AM), but for most locations there is a light drizzle of snow or no precipitation.

You can see the dry slot here from this radar image (4:30 AM). The snow to our west will overspread our area later this morning, giving us 1-2 more inches of snow.

The problem this morning will be that the back part of the storm is going to wrap around and bring us another 1-2 inches of snow...right during the morning commute. Superintendents are in a tight spot. Roads are mostly clear now but they won't be in a few hours, well after they've made their decisions. And you know how well that is going to go over with students and parents if it's snowing during the 7-9 AM window. We do not envy the Superintendents' position here this morning.

We do have some delays and cancellations to report already. We will add to this list as more decisions come in.

TWO-HOUR DELAY:

Clarksburg
Gabriel Abbott
Mount Greylock RSD (including Williamstown and Lanesborough)
North Adams
Southwest Vermont Supervisory Union

CLOSED:

Emma Miller
Mohawk Trail RSD
