Forecast Update-Tuesday morning Dec. 17

It is starting to look like the surface low will intensify off the coast rapidly, before the western edge of the precipitation shield moves out of Berkshire County. Therefore, I think 3-6″ of snow accumulation is likely, with even 7 or 8″ in a few spots in the elevated terrain to the east. Also, the snow should continue moderate at times into the evening instead of ending during the afternoon.
