Grey Skies

Yesterday saw a modest amount of melting, with the air temperature remaining at or below freezing for most of the day, but it was warm enough where the sun pushed things over the top.

Yesterday also saw the Cook's Pond deer herd lose at least one member to Olean Street traffic.

If you are hiking today bear in mind that there will be patches of ice mixed in as yesterday's melting refroze overnight and is not too likely to remelt over today.
