Berkshires Getting Snow, Icy Rain Overnight

Just because the Tuesday reached a relatively balmy 30 degrees, don't think that winter is giving up. 
 
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has issued a winter weather advisory from Tuesday afternoon through 6 a.m. Wednesday for up to 4 inches of snow and sleety ice.
 
Plan on slippery roads and hazardous conditions driving home. Snow will begin late this afternoon and then switch to a wintry mix including freezing rain, in the evening. This precipitation may linger into the morning, freezing roadways in the morning.  
 
The state Department of Transportation is advising travelers that approximately 2-4 inches is forecast across most of the state, and up to 2 inches is expected on the Cape and Islands.
 
Highway Districts have pretreated state roadways in advance of the storm and will be deploying snow removal crews and equipment to clear state roadways as snow begins to accumulate. Drivers are encouraged to use caution and reduce speed, as snow may cause slippery roadway conditions.
 
"MassDOT is monitoring upcoming snowfall that is expected to impact today’s evening commute, with 2 to 4 inches possible across most of Massachusetts," said State Highway Administrator Jonathan Gulliver.?"For commuters and anyone else out on the roads this afternoon and evening, we encourage everyone to allow for extra time, reduce speeds, and to be mindful of our snow removal crews and snowplows."
 
MassDOT has more than 3,000 pieces of state and vendor equipment available.
