HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I rarely b***ch about busts but I've been hearing -15 to -20 forecast for tonight in NW Ma. for almost a week from NWS and the local mets. and at 8:30 pm with P. Cloudy skies and a current temp. of 7F I really have my doubts of getting near double digit negatives nor even getting colder than last saturday morning (-6F).
