The opening round of rain with the storm that commerced yesteryear evening lingered longer than has been forecast before turning to snow and thus snowfall totals came in a bit less than feared might happen. 

Even so, both the rain and more wet snow that followed combined to make for a heavy blanket of snow upwards of five inches thick and which will surely freeze hard shortly given plummeting outside temperatures to well below freezing after the storm with even colder to follow tonight and then linger until at least Thursday morning.

Accordingly, Quincy Quarry News will be hitching up the dogs to check out local roads, sidewalks, and such as soon as possible after first light.

Plowing it!

In the meanwhile Quincy Quarry News has already received words of disconcerting responses to this snowfall event. 

For example, last night around halftime for the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Raven’s playoff game Washington Street was far from well-plowed and salted. 

Similarly, the Quarry has received reports of repeated whacking of manholes in the Neck by a snowplow  the such that both the truck and its driver surely so suffered worse beatings for doing so.
