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


It's 32 degrees F. / 0 degrees C. and overcast
just a bit of snow, here and there.


From WKTV: 'Good morning Central New York! A little taste of winter today, with chilly weather and snow flurries. A cold night tonight, and then some big changes as we head into the weekend.
Snow flurries will linger into the morning hours today, with very light accumulations. Starting out the day in the low 30s. Make sure the kids bring the winter jacket heading off to school today.

Flurries will last through the morning hours, and will gradually end before the afternoon. Mostly cloudy today, with highs only near 40 degrees! Drier weather moves in by the afternoon, with a peak or two of sunshine late in the day not out of the question.

As high pressure builds in tonight, skies will clear out. With temperatures already chilly before sunset, temperatures will be in position to fall quite a bit tonight. Overnight lows in the upper teens to low 20s! That's near record cold!

Starting out Saturday morning with a bit of freezing fog. This won't last long. Partly sunny skies and highs in the upper 40s to near 50 degrees. Warmer weather by Sunday and more sunshine as high pressure crests overhead. Highs on Sunday in the upper 50s.

The warmup continues Monday and Tuesday, with highs in the upper 50s to near 60 degrees! The next chance of precipitation is expected late Tuesday, with some rain as a cold front advances. Chilly weather again by Wednesday, with perhaps a mix of rain and more snow showers."

IN THE MAIL

from Kelly Belouin: "The Jr. Pee Wee Pop Warner Football Team is still in the PLAYOFFS and will be playing at home this Sunday at 2:00. Come support our boys!"

from both Cindy Gallagher and Tammy Graves:

Invitation for "Dairy Does D.C. in December"

When: Wednesday, Dec. 2, 2009 Where: Washington, D.C.

Who: All Dairy Crisis Interested Parties (farmers, Holstein Association USA, FoodDemocracy Now, Food and Water Watch, Food Declaration, National Family Farm Coalition, Chambers of Commerce, Land Trusts, National Farmers Union, Pro-Ag, Family Farm Defenders, Moms Rising, FFA, agribusiness, financing sectors, students, consumers, Slow Food USA)

Why: To have a coast-to-coast, coordinated effort and steadfast presence to gain national attention and meet with our state representatives. Washington D.C. does not understand that the dairy economy is hovering on the brink of collapse. There has never been a better time to send someone from your farm or family to D.C. to deliver a firm message calling for action to secure a future in dairy farming instead of a financial collapse.

Why Background:
Dairy farmers know their dues-taking organizations are not acting with conviction for them – the dues-paying members.

Who is coming with us? RSVP Sun., Nov. 8 Want to learn more? Please email us.
RSVP or learn more by contacting, Bryan Gotham, blcgotham@yahoo.com. Find him on Facebook too.

Background:
A conference call of over 40 dairy crisis interested individuals from coast to coast occurred on Monday, Nov. 2 to discuss Dairy Does D.C. in December. This invitation is to find out who wants to go. After we have gauged the interest at end of day Sunday, Nov. 8, we will have another planning conference call on Nov. 9. Below is the draft framework of tasks.

Steps with Tasks and Goals
1. Measure participation interest in Dairy does D.C. in December to occur Wed., December 2nd. Planning will halt if response is weak.
2. Establish state leaders to organize buses and fundraising for bus expense. New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia organizers will provide guidance as they did this back in July.
3. Goal: 1 bus from each of the 23 major dairy states. This would be over 1000 farmers. Consumers are also encourage to go.
4. Set-up appointments with representatives for Wed., December 2, 2009

We look forward to hearing from you."
