Active Weather Period Continues

The bad news is that a week ago we were watching for a moderate/heavy snow event for Friday. As you can by the lack of buzz out there on the news and on social media, that threat no longer exists. 

But the good news is that numerous small- and medium-sized storms could bring an abundance of snow to the Berkshires. Here is a long-term map that show how much snow the models think we will get (from all the storms combined) over the next two weeks:

Another two feet would be amazing and would keep a sturdy snow base well into mid-March.

So, what can we expect in the next week?

Several storms that seemed to be heading for the Berkshires are now sliding to our south. Tomorrow's chance for snow will go out to sea, and Sunday's storm is trending that way as well. We might see a few inches of snow Sunday afternoon/evening if we're lucky.

Some of the models show a stronger storm for Monday night into Tuesday, but they are not all in agreement. That storm has coastal elements that bear watching.

After Tuesday, we expect to see more nuisance snows for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Light accumulations are all possible those days.

With most schools on vacation next week, we won't be offering too much in the way of snow day/remote day information, but we will continue to help give you a sense of when snow will fall and how much.

Go out and enjoy the snow. Not every winter is this good for snow lovers.
