WE ESCAPED THE SNOW STORM!
JUST LIGHT SNOW THIS MORNING ALONG WITH A LITTLE
SLEET AND SOME RAIN AND TODAY A HIGH OF 35.
ROADS AND STREETS ARE GOOD. NOTHING NEW ON THE
GROUND. WILL BE COLDER TOMORROW AND THURSDAY,
BUT NO SNOW. THE WEATHER SHOULD BE GOOD FOR
THE KMAQ FARM AND HOME SHOW TOMORROW.
HILLARY CLINTON AND DONALD TRUMP WERE THE WINNERS
