As we've already seen a fair amount of the snow in the Berkshires for this time of year, we know there could be plenty on the way throughout this Winter. So, now that we know there could be more on the way in the days to come, it brings up a good question: What Massachusetts cities and towns get the most snow on a yearly basis?

We all know that it's certainly that time of year for it. It's also the time of the year where it feels that much more festive when snow arrives. The kids love it, but us adults have had enough of having to drive on the slick roads while also having to shovel driveways, stairs, and sidewalks. So, in Massachusetts, are you somewhere that it is going to snow the most?

Let's take a look at the top 5 places throughout the year that get the most snow in the Bay State. And spoiler alert, those in the Berkshires may not like seeing what's on this list:
