We awoke to a white world this morning. I measured one inch of snow on the deck and reported the first snow of the season to CoCoRaHS. It seems early, but that's only because we've had unusually warm weather so recently. It's a huge chance to adjust to!

Here is the latest work schedule on the Route 2 project over in East and South Cabot. They are winding down now, getting ready to pull out. The bridge being straightened should be a big improvement, especially for commuters this winter. That was always a very dangerous curve. Drive carefully - it always takes a while for folks to get the hang of driving on snowy roads and possibly ice again this time of year - and lost of folks are still driving with summer tires. We have to not only remember to adjust our own driving, we have to watch out for other drivers on the road.
