Surprise Snow Day (For Most)

Well, we definitely missed on that one. We were pretty confident that most schools would be in full session and only a few districts would see delays today (Wednesday), especially in the eastern hill towns. The northern corner elementary schools--Clarksburg, Florida, Emma Miller--were likely to see delays. Central Berkshire was definitely also in play.

But quite early on it became apparent that Superintendents up and down the County were going with the delay. And then about an hour later, the first few dominoes fell and most students ended up with a surprise full snow day. Only a few South County schools stuck to their guns and went with the two-hour delay.

Not a lot of snow to report in the Berkshires as a result of the storm.

For some, today's snow day pushes the last day of school past Juneteenth (on a Friday), which means school will go into the week of June 22. That's already starting to sound late. And that's going to cut into our FIFA World Cup watching time.

As for our next storm, we are eyeing some snow activity for the end of next week. The Euro isn't showing much but the North American model is showing 2-4 for Thursday/Friday. Again, maybe another delay situation. Unfortunately, we see no big storms in sight for the next ten days.
