The First Snow Storm

The air is crisp, the wind chillingly felt, and the snow now layered on the solid soil, yes folks winter is here. The storm slowly worked its presence from across the country dumping inches upon inches of snow on unexpected towns. Last night and early this morning, Danbury got its taste.

There was a reported 3-4 inches in the area. The storm brought sleet, rain and snow that made for messy driving. There were seventeen accidents between Danbury and Waterbury on I-84, fortunately no one was severely injured in any, along with various police calls for assistance.

Plows were out early and the storm was fought off by local city-workers plowing the streets during the early hours, and it seems they have won the battle. However the war still wages on and we will see how the city fares.
