Tuesday February 18

The weather for today will be wet, with showers likely from mid- morning onward.  The high will be near 47 degrees and the low, in the wee hours, will get down to around 26.

Here’s a photo my wife took as we were driving out to Morgantown yesterday around Noon.  It is from 219 right across from Brenda’s Pizzeria. I thought the blue sky and the blue water contrasted well with the somewhat stark Winter foliage.

And, oh what a difference a week or so makes.  Here’s a photo submitted and taken by Ann Stuck from just off Glendale road that she took after a recent ice storm. It was actually daylight out.  That is the sun in the photo. Thanks Ann!
