Sunday evening for Monday


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

MONDAY IS GARBAGE DAY

Morning temp & Forecast:

It's twenty degrees and clear at 7:00 a.m.

"Another sunny, breezy, chilly day today. High temperatures climb into the lower 30s. A west wind between 10-20mph will put wind chill values in the teens and 20s for most of the day.

Low pressure to the north and east will toss in some extra clouds tonight along with the chance for flurries.

More sunshine Tuesday with a few lingering snow showers. Unsettled weather returns for the second half of the week with unseasonably cool temperatures."



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


The sun has been bright, but it's still chilly, the temperature just barely reaching the 32-degree mark on Sunday. At least ice has melted from sidewalks, and now the Olmstead "team" is out, again!



Walkers are taking to the Marshall Trail ...........



.............. and watching for activity at the beaver pond.



Dripsickles, at the Caves.



Running water where it shouldn't be brought the entire DPW and mot of its equipment to the corner of East Bacon Street and Conger Avenue, on Sunday afternoon.

Have a great week, every one!
