Daily Digest

The region is in for some strong weather this evening as a major storm front moves through the area. The National Weather Service has posted flood warnings for much of the Berkshires, the New York Capital District, northern Connecticut and Vermont. The area is expected to get up to 2 inches of rain by Friday.

The rain has canceled tonight's Bang on a Can concert at Windsor Lake and the SteepleCat's game, both in North Adams.
