Special Forecast Update

Snowfall forecast through Saturday 8am

….IT WILL BE WET BUT NOT VERY WHITE…

So over the last few days we’ve been tracking a storm that, by all accounts, looks very cold. It caused a little worry that we might have a kind of May 9, 1977 situation on our hands where some interior portions of SNE picked up 6″+ of snow. The good news is, that does not appear to be in the cards. There will be snow in parts of New England but you’re going to need to be way inland and up high for it to stick in any meaningful way.

This snowfall forecast map pretty much tells the story. I’m looking at an inch or two for the Berkshires out in western MA with a snowfall max of near 4″ up by the VT/MA border. The air will not be cold enough overnight tonight for accumulating snow to get too much further east. So, May 9 2020 should be wet and not white for most of us. Thanks 2020 for some small mercy.
