Saturday A.M.

It's 22 degrees; no precipitation.

Although it seemed to snow, all day yesterday, the accumulation never topped three or four inches! (The fellow who plows my driveway came and cleared the first two inches or so - not that it was really necessary, but I can't blame him, either: after all, he'd only plowed once in January and once earlier in February. It hasn't been a lucrative winter for him - so far!)

WKTV predicts that: "On Saturday, a quiet day is expected. A few flurries are possible, but for the most part it will be a pleasant day, with clouds, some sun and highs seasonable in the low 30s. A similar day will follow on Sunday, but we'll tack on another degree or two to the high. On Monday, a weak cold front may drop in from the north and touch off a few snow showers. But for the most part, it looks quiet and seasonably mild, with highs in the mid to upper 30s.
Regarding Tuesday and Wednesday, a complex storm continues to take aim at the Northeast. The latest trends today suggest the storm ends up a bit further south than we were thinking yesterday. Should this occur, it will be colder, with more snow than rain here in CNY. This bears close watching. Lake effect and colder temperatures will follow this storm, with another widespread light snow possible Friday. Getting busy. Stay tuned."

There are really only two reasons for this post:

to send a little CHEER to my friends who are entertaining "the Bug!"

They're probable just sick of looking at Winter, but - it could be worse:

A year ago today, it took the "Bobcat" to find sidewalks!


Mark has sent some more "perk up" pictures. These were taken in a park near his home in Ft. Myers.


A water fowl seems to be using this stretch of river as a landing strip, but when I look at it I think "kayak!"


Other paddlers find Peddle Boats available ...........




............. or really super "bikes" for entire families to peddle, on land.
