Thursday/March/5/2026

Welcome: Good morning. We are in for a treat tomorrow - it will be a mystery box of weather. I am leaning towards sleet for those of us in Pittsfield, but rain, snow, and freezing rain are also possible, if not likely! A real wintry mix will be consuming Berkshire County and Bennington County. Roads will be hazardous from icing, and also from unpredictability. Various towns and elevations will have differing weather. My advice is to use caution tomorrow while driving, and if you can, please just stay off the roads. Ice can be difficult to impossible to detect, so you might not even know when the real ride will begin. Be careful, and look forward to the warmer temperatures next week...
