Berkshire County has been experiencing single-digit and below 0 temperatures lately, and it's not looking any warmer this weekend. Saturday and Sunday will have highs around 10-11 degrees. Next week, the high will struggle to reach just below 20. It's no joke when I say we are feeling a deep freeze.
