Print Story | Email Story
Crazy late winter weather comes in at full force on Wednesday with — wait for it — up to 15 inches!
 
Everyone get your yardsticks ready because we want some proof this time. 
 
The National Weather Service's lastest forecast is heavy, wet snow with accumulations of 13 to 17 inches, and localized amounts up to 20. The storm system is expected to stall over eastern New York and the Berkshires and dump up to 1 to 2 inches an hour.
 
A winter storm warning is in effect beginning Wednesday morning at 7 a.m. and through Thursday at 7 p.m.
 
Travel will be very difficult to impossible, including during the evening commute on Wednesday. Isolated to scattered power outages possible. Be prepared for significant reductions in visibility at times.
 
Greylock Snow Day is rating the possibility of an early Wednesdy release and a Thursday snow day as  "extremely high."
 
We're giving this one severe storm rating of a full loaf of bread and a gallon of milk.
