It's 23 degrees and sunny at 7:30
The WKTV forecast; "After a chilly start, sunshine will help bring temperatures into the upper 40s. Watch out for ponding on the roadway due to rapidly melting snow.
Increasing clouds later today and tonight as our next storm system arrives. Rain develops after midnight tonight, mixing with snow or sleet north and east of Utica. Any mixing in these areas quickly changes over to plain rain by the morning.
Dry weather returns Thursday. A surge of warmer weather will bring high temperatures close to 50 on Thursday, and well into the 50s on Friday. Significant amounts of melting snow will continue all across the area throughout the week."

NOTEWORTHY
"This is an important gesture, I think. The WW1 centennial is coming up in three years and I fear that not many of our younger generation are all that familiar with the Great War-- that was to end all wars! "Who knows only his own generation remains always a child." (the motto over the front door of Norlin Library, at my alma mater, the University of Colorado)."

This event was brought to my attention by Library Director Jeff Reynolds, who wrote:

To some folks, and at other times of the year, this would be a discouragingly dull scene, but to me it's wonderful: bare fields and mud! Spring!
It won't be long.
At around 6:30 last evening Main Street was very quiet ......
..... but it was comparatively warm and, best of all, it was still light out!
Opening soon!
There's something happening at the former Purrfect-10 on W. Main Street, too.

"He who knows only his own generation [i.e., one without a knowledge of history] remains forever a child."
That quotation, included in Jeff Reynold's note, intrigued me; Google had the answer:
It was written by Marcus Tullius Cicero, a Roman philosopher, statesman, lawyer, political theorist, and Roman constitutionalist. Cicero is widely considered one of Rome's greatest orators and prose stylists, born in Arpinum, Italy, January 3, 106 BC – December 7, 43 BC.
