Summary: It appears that the developing coastal low tomorrow will be to far off the coast to impact Berkshire County. As a result, I have changed Wednesday’s forecast to reflect this, with the removal of precipitation from the forecast as well as slightly higher temperatures due to the lack of precipitation and less in the way of overcast skies. Otherwise, the forecast is unchanged, with colder air moving in for mid to late week.

Tuesday Night

Partly cloudy and much colder. Clouds increasing toward daybreak.

Low temperatures near 30 in most locations, low 30s in South County and upper 20s over the elevated terrain.

High temperatures in the mid to upper 40s in Pittsfield, North Adams, Adams and Williamstown; upper 40s in Lee, Stockbridge, Great Barrington and Sheffield and; low 40s over the elevated terrain and hilltowns.
