The milder temperatures that we saw this past weekend will stick around for a few more days until a complex system moves into our area Wednesday night. This system--actually, multiple systems--will impact our weather through Friday.
In simplest terms we are eying snow for Thursday into Thursday night. Right now meteorologists are looking at the 7 AM Thursday to 7 AM Friday for a period of snow. The North American model is coming in a little stronger with 2-3 inches predicted, and the Euro is only showing 1-2 inches. Either way, there is general agreement that we will have a plowable but minor snowfall.

The timing is not great. It's forecasted to start a little later than we would like. Also, the storm may track out to sea. And given the generous snow day that we received last week, Superintendents may be less willing to call a full snow day based on a 1-3" forecast.
What we need to see happen is the forecast to move into the 3-5" range, then we will see some snow days for students of Berkshire County.
As always, the GSD Staff will be monitoring the situation around the clock and updating daily.
