Winter Weather Advisory for Tuesday (Nov. 20)

The relatively snowy November continues.

We woke up today to an inch of new snow at the GSD Home Office. It was not the 3-4 inches we thought we might get up here in Billsville, but it did fill in some of the gaps caused by the melting we saw this weekend.

But the good news is that we have a Winter Weather Advisory for Berkshire County tonight, and it starts at 1 AM. The timing looks great. But the forecasted snowfall range is between 2 and 6 inches, which mean meteorologists are seeing all kinds of possibilities with the models.

This storm is a different kind of storm but it's about an 80% version of the Friday one. The morning commute will be messy--and there is not a dry slot to worry about this time around--but we just don't think that there will be enough snow to cause widespread delays. We'll see a few, especially in hill towns, but given the tough stance South County districts took last Friday and the close proximity of the Thanksgiving break, many schools will have a full day. Central Berkshire is probably the likeliest of districts to have a shot at a delay.

We'll probably have one or two more things to say about this minor storm later tonight. Stay tuned.
