There may be a flurry in the days ahead, but the 2011 Snowfall Derby is officially over. The season after El Nino was rough. Our snow climbed 40 inches more than 2010. The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over 14,000 tons of salt was sprayed on Rochester area roads during the final quarter of 2010. Salt keeps our roads drivable, but it negatively impacts the enviornment. Salt mining is a major local business. More than a flavor, salt shakes up our lives in snow land. 106 local highway snowplows attack eight to nine [...]]]></description>

We are now over winter’s halfway point on accumulated snow. I sense spring in the frigid air. Weekend snow increased the season-to-date accumulated snow to 53.6”. Rochester averages 100.3” per year. We are halfway home. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rochester, New York ranks fourth in America for profanity. Some argue we swear because of the annual average cumulative snowfall exceeds 100 inches. Others, including myself, believe our profanity is amplified by the lack of sunlight. The National Weather Service is kind enough to project 49% of our days include sunshine.
