Tuesday




It's 13 degrees; crisp and clear.

WKTV's predicts: "A chilly start to the day today! Temperatures starting out in the teens. High temperatures this afternoon will be about 10 degrees warmer than yesterday. More importantly, as an area of high pressure crests over the region, winds will be much lighter today compared to yesterday. This will make it feel much better outdoors compared to yesterday's winterlike day. Clear skies will continue tonight, with overnight lows near 20.

High pressure will slowly move east. This will switch winds into the southwest, allowing for warmer weather to build into the region. Wednesday will start with plenty of sunshine. We'll see some increase in clouds by the end of the day. It looks to be mild though. Highs should reach 50-55. Showers will arrive Wednesday night and Thursday."

Tom Eisenhut is pretty sure ..........


........ and Tom Morgan's ready!



Bbbbrrrrr! It was nice and sunny, yesterday, but with the wind coming directly from the North Pole and the temperature in the twenties, kids pulled their hoods up and their sleeves down and rushed right along Madison Street, after school.



These gals, walking on White Street, haven't given up their winter jackets, yet!



Suzette added more colors to her doorway bouquet ........



........ and there's a bright new wreath on her Madison Street neighbor's front door.
