To the Editor:

Dear North Adams Neighbors,

We are writing today in support of the new Greylock School project. Education has always been our family's priority, and we were very lucky to have received a complete early childhood education. Early education is the foundation on which everything in a community, such as ours, is built upon.

The effects of the new school project will be felt for generations and build a strong foundation for the future of our community. This is why the passing of the Greylock School Project, an opportunity provided to all children in North Adams, is important to us and our family.

Please support the Greylock School Project and come out to vote on Oct. 8 because it will be crucial for securing a brighter, stronger community. Let’s come together to make a lasting impact on the children of North Adams.

Grace and Charlotte Towler
North Adams, Mass.

Snow, or More Snow? Depends on Your State

The Berkshires could get 2 to 4 inches of snow on Friday. Or it could get 6 to 9 inches.
 
Which are you hoping for? 
 
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has issued a winter storm warning for Southern Vermont and a winter storm advisory for the Berkshires — but any snow isn't likely to stop at the imaginary border. 
 
The warning was issued early Thursday afternoon for communities including Bennington, Pownal and Stamford, Vt., beginning Friday at 10 a.m. through Saturday at 1 p.m.
 
The day will start off with a wintry mixed precipitation of snow, sleet and freezing rain. The forecast for total snow accumulations are 6 to 9 inches and up at a 10th of an inch of ice. Snowfall rates may reach up to an inch an hour in the evening. 
 
In the Berkshires, the prediction is 2 to 4 inches of snow with the advisory also in effect from 10 a.m. on Friday to 1 a.m. on Saturday. The higher elevations could see up to 7 inches; the region could see up to 2/10th of an inch of ice. 
 
Snow during the day on Friday will likely be wet and heavier before becoming lighter and drier in the evening.
