Monday afternoon for Tuesday

Right now, it sounds as if the words for tomorrow are :

"Weather Permitting!"

At 6 o'clock Monday evening, it's 19 degrees and there's a bitterly cold wind that feels as if it's coming to us directly from the North Pole!

**********

WKTV's predictions: "**A lake effect snow warning is in effect for Madison, and Chenango County through 1AM Thursday***

**A lake effect snow advisory is in effect for Oneida, Lewis and Otsego County through 7PM Tuesday**

**Winter weather advisories continue for the Adirondacks**

A flash freeze is taking place this early afternoon as temperatures continue to fall through the 20s. Exercise caution on the roadways. Some untreated surfaces will be a bit slick. Cold weather builds in from the west as the weekend storm pulls away. Winds from the west will bring in this cold weather, and the wind chill today will make it feel more like teens.

Cold weather settles in tonight, with lake effect snow developing south and west of Utica. Several inches of snow will fall tonight for Madison, Chenango, and Otsego County tonight through Wednesday night.

Outside of the lake effect bands, cold weather and intervals of sunshine are expected. Turning less chilly as we head into the weekend."

The DPW was busy, today. The Bobcat scooped last week's leftover snowbanks ...............

.......... and load after load was trucked to the old dump on Route 315.

HAPPENING ON TUESDAY

Judging will take place Tuesday evening - weather permitting! - and the judges (who are always from out-of-town) will have quite a job of it! Although there seem to be fewer large lighting displays this year, probably because the weather hasn't been conducive to outdoor decoration-work, there are a great many lovely doorway and window decorations.

The doorway above is at Jim and Nancy Morgan's home on Stafford Avenue, where the windows all have matching wreaths, too !

Marilyn's "decorator's touch" is always evident at the Daniel Maine residence on McCabe Road.



I don't know who to thank!!

Was it you??

Sometime today, big bunches of evergreens with huge red bows were tied to the eight posts of the Bandstand AND red bows also added to finials and the wrought iron railings on the park side of the structure. (If you saw the elves at work and / or know who they were, please let me know!)

FOR THE RECORD

Les Bohner E-wrote that "you know who" printed out the entire list of collective nouns that I mentioned in this morning's post:
" He printed ALL the different groups - he must have used a ream of paper!"

(But just think how smart Gil is, now!)

Have a nice evening, everyone!
