Frozen Over

This is the view of the Genesee River taken while standing on the O'Rourke lift bridge sidewalk (looking North towards the lake in the distance) with the Sun peeking through briefly. The river flows into Lake Ontario but as you can see not much on the surface is flowing right now. These waterfowl won't be there much longer - either they will move on or the Snowy Owl that has been hanging around the piers will take care of them. The lake is also frozen over quite a bit from shore. We're in a "chill" right now and high temperatures for the next week are not expected to get much above 25F ( -4C). The high today was 9F (-13C) and the low was -5F (-21C). At least we are not getting a lot of snow with this cold weather for now.

Shivering scene, Patti. I've forgotten the gray skies that wipe out the horizon.

That does look cold! I hope the ducks don't get frozen in there.

Very rare for the Vineyard, we have Snowy Owls visiting us, one made the front page of the MARTHAS VINEYARD TIMES today. I've yet to see one though, usually working.
9 degrees? Whoa that's cold...we were 11 this morning, highs around 30 with full sun, and now down to about 19. I bet this is a pretty scene in the summer!

Wow, this is a shot for the city's history books. Be sure you give one of these to the library. It is people like you who keep history alive. V
