It's 26.8 degrees at 6:30 a.m.
No snow overnight.
"We dodged the bullet!"
I don't think that anyone, anywhere, has missed news stories about the super lake-effect snow storm that struck Buffalo and areas east of Lake Ontario in the last 48 hours. As much as SIX FEET of snow has fallen. The city of Pembroke, about 20 miles ENE of Buffalo, received 76 inches in 24 hours, and there's more on the way.
Here are just a couple of the many pictures posted on the WeatherChannel's website.
But here in Waterville, the sun has been shining, the temperature rose to a bit above freezing and the ground is bare except for little bits of snow lingering in shady spots. The closest we came to seeing "white stuff" was this dense layer of fog that filled the Oriskany Valley between Grant Hill and the top ridge of West Hill, on Monday.

Looking Ahead, The Thursday a.m. Weather Forecast from TWCNY:
"Lake Snow Continues, Cold and Windy for ALL.
We are still tracking heavy lake snow off of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario and areas impacted with heavy snow earlier this week are going to be dealing with more. Northeast of Lake Ontario there will be a band of snow bringing a localized 1 to 2 feet from today into tomorrow morning. areas within the band outside of the highest amounts can expect near a half a foot. Across the rest of the state a few flurries at best otherwise just cold and windy, same as the past few days.
The winds shift and the snow showers shift more southeast of the lake and we could see a few inches tomorrow morning or snow with continued cold and blustery conditions.

Ready for a change up, warm temps return for the weekend and highs will climb into the 50s. "

IN THE MAIL
From Gil Condon, upon seeing the photograph of the
Partis Meat Market Christmas Display in the Monday blog post:
"I don't remember ( Dementia setting in) the market, but do remember that Ms. O'Toole (not sure of her name) had a shop where Ed Carter Jewelry moved in ... her and her Bro lived up on Babbott and walked the trip several times a day. The IOOF had the corner bldg.,,which might have burned down. One butcher has a sharpening rod hanging from his waist .. I still have one too... "
Thanks for your note, Gil. Every little bit of History helps!

Every time that I sit down to write a grocery list I automatically picture the items, knowing exactly where to find them --- in Garrett's Foodking!
How I miss going there and seeing so many familiar faces smiling at me!
Charlie Gaiser, Rick Garrett and Dottie Ruane
taken (I think) the day that Charlie retired.
