Storm Eve, Evening Update

NWS Albany folks have lowered our snow totals from 17" earlier in the day to a mere foot, but most forecasters are still calling for 12-18" for the Berkshires, with the snow starting around noon on Sunday and lasting all the way through the early hours of Tuesday.

The heaviest snow belt has shifted west for the moment, where areas west of Albany are expecting 20 inches. This heavy snow band of 18-24" will be very hard to predict, and it's certainly possible it will switch back to the Berkshires once the storm commences.

Nothing we're seeing right now has changed our view about school on Monday. It's highly unlikely any Superintendent will want to risk rolling out the buses Monday morning, especially with the forecast for continuing snow and the blowing and drifting of snow that will be taking place all day Monday.

Channel 22 out of Springfield chimes in.
So no new news is good news. You probably want to get your errands completed in the morning tomorrow as travel will be difficult after 3 or 4 PM tomorrow.

An absolutely sure-fire prediction from the GSD Staff is that you'll be reading more posts about this storm tomorrow.
