It's Garbage Day!
40.6 degrees with light rain.
WKTV predicts: "Thursday won't see much improvement, with chilly weather, clouds and showers. Temperatures will be dramatically below normal for late May. We're forecasting low 50s, but upper 40s may be the best we can do. Showers will taper off later in the day.
On Friday, the core of this cold will finally pull out. During the course of this week, a massive ridge of high pressure and warmth has built into the Midwest and Upper Lakes. This will begin to collapse eastward Friday and Saturday. So while we probably won't notice much improvement on Friday, Saturday will feature more sunshine and milder weather. Temperatures will crack 60 on Friday and perhaps the mid or upper 60s Saturday. Then on Sunday and Monday, we'll feel the heart of the ridge over us. This should lead to plenty of sunshine, quiet weather and much warmer temperatures than we'll see this week. Highs should get into the 70s Sunday and perhaps well into the 70s to near 80 by Memorial Day!"
According to Superintendent Jamie Bechy, "the DPW will not be hanging the planters along Main Street in time for the parade due to cold nightime temperatures."

There's color in the gardens!
In the Reading Room, the new iMac ........
........... which was given in memory of Richard F. Brown.
Dick was an avid historian - as well as an enthusiastic "Mac" man - and this computer is loaded with history! It holds a searchable data base of The Waterville Times since 1855; a sizable Powerpoint collection of old photographs of Waterville and links to more local history.
