At 6:00 a.m. it's 8.6 degrees and falling!




You could read the forecast in the sky, yesterday afternoon:

"clearing and colder!"



Snow devils danced in corn fields ........



........... and snow banks grew taller and broader.



Plows and sanders kept roads cleared ............



.................. but buried sidewalks south of CVS.

Please watch for pedestrians:
they have no choice but to walk in the road!




Heaps of snow have made the gazebo at the Harding Nursing Home look like a miniature structure, and - with other sorts of buildings in mind -


****************

The WKTV forecast:

"A much needed break from the wind and snow today. Blowing and drifting snow overnight may make for a few slick spots on area roadways, especially in open areas. Winds today will not be as strong as yesterday, but still strong enough to blow a bit of snow around occasionally. Most of the area stays dry, with heavy lake effect snow across the Tug Hill. Staying cold again, with highs only in the upper teens to near 20.

A lake effect band will drop south tonight into Northern Oneida County. Several inches of snow are possible. The southern most extent of the band may dip as far south as the Thruway for a brief period of time.

The lake band lifts north again Thursday afternoon. A break on Friday, before the next series of clippers arrive for the weekend bringing us light snow. These mini storms will ensure the warmer weather building to the south stays away from Central New York for a few more days."



I THINK that this is one of the Masons' Pancake Breakfast Signs!

At least it's the right color and it's on a snowbank in front of the Masonic Temple.

(I'll take a better picture of the sign, today, if it hasn't been buried!)
