At very first glance, this morning, I thought that the indoor/outdoor thermometer was broken and that one digit - like a "1" or a "2" - had fallen off: I guess not! It's simply COLD!)
7 degrees.
But an article in this morning's O-D quotes WKTV's Matt Lanza's hopeful words: "Lake-effect snow will be long gone by Saturday afternoon, and the weather will continue to mellow into Sunday, when temperatures will climb back near 40 and it will be dry and pleasant."
Equally as startling (as the temperature) is the appearnce of NOT MUCH SNOW - perhaps 4" to 6" - a mere "dusting," considering yesterday's forecasts and warnings! Snomobilers were hoping for more, I'm sure, but there will be some who just can't wait for the next snowfall and I imagine we'll see or hear some snomobiles out in the smooth fields later today.
The Writer has been waiting for just this sort of snow cover so that real "Winter" pictures could start appearing on the blog - something all of our "snowbirds" in Florida and Arizona have been waiting to see!
Look for some later!
