Winter Storm Warning -- Saturday/Sunday, Feb. 8-9

We have good ol' fashioned snowstorm headed our way for Saturday night. NWS Albany announced a Winter Storm Warning for our area, which means 5+ inches is almost guaranteed. Get your snow boots and shovels ready!

Saturday will be cold but snow-free. Snow will begin around 7 PM and last through the morning hours of Sunday. Total accumulations are expected to be in the 6-8" range. If Sunday were a school day we would be looking at snow days for all students in the Berkshires.

Temps will be in the low 20s when the bulk of the snow is coming down. This means the snow will be light and fluffy and should be able to be shoveled fairly easily.

Any Sunday morning events will likely be cancelled or postponed until later in the day.

As we look at next week--the week before vacation for most--we have a very active period from Tuesday through Thursday. Our best guess right now is delays in play for Wednesday and delays/snow days possible for Thursday. 

There is uncertainty about how north or south these storms will track, which is why things are very much up in the air for those days. But the active pattern and cold temps should allow students to get a shortened day either Wednesday or Thursday.
