What Do You Think April Will Bring Weather-Wise In Berkshire County?

The weather in the Berkshires is calm today, with conditions typical for late March from Saturday to Monday. After that, there’s expected to be an extended period of rain in the middle of the week, reminiscent of April showers, accompanied by spring-like daytime temperatures.

Friday’s abrupt drop in temperature, after almost hitting 68 the previous day, serves as a reminder that the transition to warmer weather can be unpredictable, particularly in New England.
