Sunday/March/12/2023

Welcome: Good morning. This Nor’easter is still going to produce widespread heavy snow across our area. I want to remind you all, predicted snow totals are if the storm track stays as it is predicted. If the track shifts during the event, snow totals will be different than expected…

Alert: A Winter Storm Watch will go into effect, for Berkshire County and Bennington County, from 2:00 PM Monday going until 8:00 AM Wednesday.

Timing: Scattered morning snow tomorrow will develop into steady rain and/or snow tomorrow afternoon. Everyone should see a full transition to just heavy snow tomorrow night. This heavy snow will continue into Tuesday night. Scattered snow showers are here on Wednesday. Everything is done Wednesday night.

Snow: Widespread wet snow is likely. I expect 1 to 2 feet of wet snow in total. Some in the highest terrain could reach near 3 feet of wet snow.

Sleet: Not expected.

Freezing Rain: Not expected.

Rain: Scattered rain is likely. Rainfall amounts will depend on how much mixes into the snow.

Thunder: Not expected.

Peak Wind: (Tuesday) 15 to 25 mph, with gusts to 45 mph. Coming from the North Northeast .

Low Temperatures During the Event: (Monday night) The lower 30s.

High Temperatures During the Event: (Tuesday) The lower to mid 30s.

Blowing/Drifting Snow: Not expected.

Snow Day Calculator: 80% chance of a snow day for Tuesday. Early dismissals could be possible Monday, with delays being possible Wednesday.

Hazards Summary: Roads will be dangerous to impossible to drive on. Heavy snow and strong winds will likely cause numerous power outages and tree damage. Visibility will be limited at times. As this is wet snow, and high snowfall amounts are expected, be extra cautious while shoveling, so you do not strain your body. Start preparing today.

Anything Else: I hope you all stay safe. Please comment and like. Thank you. Have an amazing day. I hope all goes your way. So let today be your very best day. Cheers everyone!

Welcome: Good morning. I received a coating of snow last night. A huge Nor’easter is on the way. To remind you all, a Nor’easter is a storm that has wind coming from the Northeast going into it’s center. This storm could impact travel beginning Monday afternoon and going through Wednesday morning…

Timing: Widespread light snow and/or rain begins Monday morning. During Monday afternoon snow and/or rain will pickup intensity and get heavier into the night. Snow will be falling heavy into Tuesday night. Some scattered snow showers are possible Wednesday. Rain could mix in Tuesday, but there is much uncertainty with how cold it will be.

Snow: Widespread snow is likely. These are very early possible amounts. This storm could surprise with more rain or more snow than expected. Take this with multiple grains of salt. If forecasts stay the same as right now, then these amounts will be expected:

For lower terrain areas 7 to 14 inches of wet snow is expected. For higher terrain areas 1 to 2 feet of wet snow is expected.

Sleet: Not expected.

Freezing Rain: Not expected.

Rain: Scattered rain is likely. Rainfall amounts will depend on how much mixes into the snow.

Saturday/March/4/2023

Welcome: Good morning. I received about 7 inches of snow so far. How much snow have you received? Please comment the answer to my question. Thank you. I heard the wind in the night, but see no damage. Enjoy the snow, because meteorological spring began March 1st…

Alert: A Winter Storm Warning is in effect, for Northern Berkshire County (Pittsfield and north) and Bennington County, until 7:00 PM tonight.

A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect, for Southern Berkshire County (Lenox and south), until 7:00 PM tonight.

A Snow Emergency is in effect for Pittsfield until 7:00 AM tomorrow.

Timing: Widespread snow showers will begin to diminish during the afternoon. Some isolated snow showers will be possible at night. No new snow should be falling tomorrow morning. Also, most of the accumulating snow has fallen. Some rain could mix in today.

Snow: Widespread snow showers are likely. An additional coating to 3 inches of snow is expected. Some in the highest areas of Bennington County could receive up to an additional 5 inches.

Total snow amounts are as follows: 3 to 6 inches for Lenox and southwards, 5 to 10 inches for Pittsfield and northwards, and some in Bennington County likely reached 1 foot.

Sleet: Not expected. Previous sleet amounts are calculated into total snow amounts.

Freezing Rain: Not expected.

Friday/March/3/2023

Welcome: Good morning. New trends have caused me to consider the warmer outcome for this storm. However, the colder outcome still remains possible. Bennington County will likely see more snow than Berkshire County in either scenario. If this storm can stay all snow, I will have a lot of shoveling to do…

Alert: A Winter Storm Warning will go into effect, for Northern Berkshire County (Pittsfield and north) and Bennington County, it begins 6:00 PM this evening and goes until 7:00 PM tomorrow night.

A Winter Weather Advisory will go into effect, for Southern Berkshire County (Lenox and south), from 6:00 PM this evening going until 7:00 PM tomorrow night.

A Snow Emergency is in effect for Pittsfield until 7:00 AM Sunday.

Timing: Widespread heavy snow is expected to begin this evening. As the night moves forward some sleet will likely mix in for some. Tomorrow will feature a wintry mix and/or just snow. We all end the event with a few snow showers tomorrow night. Snowfall rates tonight could reach up to 2 inches per hour.

Snow: Widespread snow is likely. I expect 3 to 7 inches of snow for areas south of Pittsfield. For Pittsfield and north I expect 6 to 10 inches of snow. The highest elevations will likely receive 9 to 13 inches of snow.

Information about snow amounts: This storm has much uncertainty as snow amounts are highly dependent on how much sleet falls. The more sleet means the less snow. This storm has the potentials to both overachieve or underachieve.

Sleet: Widespread sleet is likely. Sleet amounts are calculated into snow amounts.

Freezing Rain: Isolated freezing rain is likely. Less than 1/10 of an inch of ice is expected.

Rain: Widespread rain is possible. Little to no rainfall expected.

Thunder: Not expected.

Peak Wind: (Tonight and tomorrow) 15 to 25 mph, with gusts to 45 mph. Coming from the East.
