Nor'easter Set to Drop Foot of Snow Over Berkshires

Here we go again. 
 
A powerful Nor'easter is set to drop up to a foot of snow over the region, right on the tail Friday's storm that dropped up to 6 inches in some areas. 
 
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has issued a winter storm warning beginning at 1 p.m. on Sunday through 7 p.m. on Monday for the Berkshires, eastern New York, Southern Vermont and northern Connecticut.
 
Heavy snow expected with total accumulations between 8 and 14 inches with some locally higher totals possible over the high peaks of the Catskills. Winds could gust as high as 45 mph.
 
The storm center was lining up to hit New York City but has been shifting north. Southern Berkshire could see a few more inches that North County, unless the storm moves further north. 
 
Vermont schoolchildren will be starting their winter vacation Monday but Berkshire kids will be headed back to school. But they might be getting an extra vacation day -- Greylock Snow Day has an 80 percent probability for of delays, a 75 percent chance for closures in South County. 
 
With the storm sweeping in by Sunday afternoon, we'll be on the lookout for any cancellations. This post will also be updated if new information becomes available.
