The two-phases of the snow Friday night and Saturday produced our biggest snowfall of the winter season. We got 5.1" at the GSD Home Office in Williamstown, and we saw several 6+" totals in Pittsfield and Lenox. All in all a nice surprise that should give us a good snow base for the next few weeks.
As for the week ahead, it's looking very cold with not that much snow. Tuesday will be very cold with high temps in the mid-teens. We'll see a brief warm up to more seasonable temperatures Wednesday through Friday (20s with a warmup on Thursday into the 30s).

But then gird yourself for the weekend. Highs on Saturday and Sunday will be in the single digits. Most people on Saturday morning will wake up to the coldest readings of the season: -5 and colder for our area.
As for snow, we could see a dusting here and there mid-week. Unfortunately, the forecast is for the cold air to move in under calm conditions. There might be something big brewing the first week of February, but only one model is giving us that scenario.
But as Saturday's snow revealed, things can change rapidly in this neck of the woods.
