Winter Weather Advisory -- Saturday, January 25

The heavier rain has finally arrived in Berkshire County, and most of us will see all rain through Sunday. As a precaution, though, NWS Albany has put in place a Winter Weather Advisory. The real threat for sleet and freezing rain will be high elevation towns over 1500 feet.

At the GSD Headquarters in Williamstown it's still a balmy 40 degrees as of 5:30 PM and the temp will bottom out at 34 tonight/early Sunday morning. So we are not expecting any frozen precip.

As for next week, it's going to be relatively warm and quiet. We will see single digits Thursday morning, and that day will be the only day of the week that does not get above freezing for a high temperature.

If you're making your way to or from the Pioneer Valley tonight, be alert to changing road conditions in the hill towns.

You know you're in a dry patch (snow-wise) when you're forced to post screenshots of the temperature forecast for February 4th--only 10 days away. Winter will return but you'll need to be patient.
