Tuesday afternoon Add-on


Oh, yes ----- it's snowing!

This map is from the Weatherunderground - not the one that's been in the political news, recently!

Down here in Whiskey Hollow - elevation 1,140' - heavy, wet snow has bent lilacs to the ground and taken down a HUGE portion of the ancient willow outside the kitchen. I'd always worried that when it "went," it would come right through the kitchen, but it didn't -- it fell in the opposite direction, missing everything - and Harry Cresswell and his boys will come and take away the remains.

Because I'll be waiting for them, and also because it really is silly to be out without a very good reason, I may not take any more pictures today.

Here's a look at the storm, so far.


When I went uptown, around 11:00 this morning, the Post Office Parkinglot was totally sloppy.


A State snowplow was moving slush off the road in Sangerfield.


Smiles stayed on these snowy Sanger Avenue pumpkin faces.


Snow was stuck to the northwest side of trees up at "Hanover Green."

Here is a link to the WKTV "School Closing" page. There are no Oneida County entries at this time, but several school in surrounding communities have cancelled afterschool activities.

Who knows what tomorrow morning will bring!
