Happy New Year! To celebrate the arrival of 2021, NWS Albany has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for the entire county, starting at 7 PM tonight (Friday) and ending by 11 AM tomorrow.
This storm is a going to present a stew of snow, sleet, freezing rain and rain for the Berkshires. Most folks should get 1-2 inches of snow/sleet, and in the higher elevations by the Vermont border, we could see up to 5 or 6 inches.
The only real change we've seen to the forecast is higher snow totals forecasted for areas to our north.
As for the Sunday storm, the models have made some adjustments and--as predicted--and have come into great agreement. The Euro model radically moved away from the 7-10" forecast from a few days ago and now only shows 2-3 inches for the Berkshires (with more snow to our south). The North American model has come around and now also shows 2-3 inches. So, that's probably the best we can expect Sunday night, with an outside chance of those totals coming up to 4-5 inches in the next few runs of the models. The timing of the snow does look as if it could impact the morning commute on Monday.

That's all we have for now. If you have to go out Saturday morning, be on the lookout for ice especially untreated roads.
