Blue Sky & Sunshine!

GARBAGE DAY

39.9 degrees and clear at 6:30

WKTV's meteorologist predicts that: A flood warning is in effect along the Mohawk River. Minor flooding is occuring and minor flooding is expected today.

Clouds and sprinkles again this morning, but drier weather will arrive this afternoon. Some breaks in the clouds, especially west of Utica later today. Still cool and breezy, with highs in the low to mid 50s. Clearing out tonight with widespread frost. Lows in the lower 30s.

Sunshine early Friday, followed by a few clouds and just a slight chance of an afternoon or evening sprinkle. A mix of sunshine and clouds on Saturday. Highs both days in the 60s.A weak disturbance brings the chance of a shower on Sunday, but not for long.

An area of high pressure arrives early next week, bringing us sunshine and pleasant temperatures."

The Observer-Dispatch notes the Death of

James E. "Jed" Dwyer, Jr., 66, of Deansboro

IN THE NEWS

From the O-D: "Three Pit Bulls Attack Two People in Waterville."


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

A week later, the underpass on Route 12 is still flooded.


Most, but not all, motorists head for the "high road" - the southbound lane.



What did "Snoopy" say?


"Cowabunga!"

***********

Yesterday was yet another chilly, drizzly, gray day, and I went searching for something bright!


I found it in at MerriRose Florist.



The cooler was filled and tubs all around the floor of the shop were heaped with fresh flowers, all ready for Mother's Day bouquets and arrangements!


At Alcotts, just walking into the greenhouse was a pleasure!



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

Even outdoors I found some rewards:


The doorways at Dan Maine's Madison Street workshop gleam with forsythia ..........


...... more daffodils and, now, purple azaleas and hyacinths bloom at the Memorial Bandstand .......


........ and, signs of Summer Good Times to come: all-color Adirondack Chairs in the sidewalk showroom at Morgans!
