Wednesday

Recyclables Day!

It's 31 degrees and overcast.

From WKTV: "Clouds thicken up overnight and light snow will arrive toward daybreak. Snow will continue through much of the day Wednesday, falling lightly and not accumulating very fast at all. At this point, we expect no more than an inch or so of accumulation, with perhaps 1-3" on the Tug Hill.
Clouds will decrease later Wednesday and into Wednesday night, allowing for another chilly one. Thursday starts great, but it now appears clouds are going to move in faster than we thought yesterday. With them could be some light snow showers, but probably little to no accumulation. Additionally, rather than the mid 40s, temperatures will likely remain in the upper 30s to around 40 because of clouds."

It stayed chilly, yesterday, but the sun was grand for much of the day and the Cleary cattle were making the most of it!


Deer did likewise. It's harder to see them, though, because their color blends right into a background of brush and cornstalks.

Looking Eastward from West Hill, there's very little snow left up toward Paris.


The ice out on Hanover Road just doesn't want to melt: perhaps today.


Yesterday afternoon clouds moved in. I've seen "Mackerel Sky," many times, but don't recall ever seeing the altocumulous clouds in a clear "Herringbone" pattern.

Refurbishments continue, no matter what the weather!
