It's hammer time

So was was telling you a few weeks ago about lake effect snow - here is a good display of it. Apparently the lower edge of eastern Lake Ontario down in Oswego Co. New York State has had over 100 inches of snow since New Years. We seem to have had about 8. It is about 80 km south of here.

In sadder news, as with my old home town in Pembroke this afternoon, where there was a memorial for the Newfoundlander, Cpl. Jamie Murphy, who died in Kabul with the Canadian Armed Forces, there is a big rally tomorrow in Watertown at the Salmon Run Mall for the US soldiers of Fort Drum in Iraq and Afganistan and for their losses, including many who have given their lives so far in 2004, with Senator Clinton and other NY state officials in attendence.
