Above freezing all day – so this mornings heavy rain storm was rain, and happily not 4″+ of snow (which happened further north):
By this afternoon though, the clouds had cleared and the sun was shining in a mostly blue sky 🙂
High and dry ice
High tides (when the moon was full) in the cold weather leaves ice layers where the Essex river overflows; now at lower tides the ice is left to slowly melt …
The ugly side of Snow
Lots of snow so far this winter means lots of plowing and gritting, and more recent warmer weather and stronger sun means the grit laden snow piles are getting ugly and dirty … until we get a heavy rain storm, these piles remain to make the side of the road look dreary!
