Improbably, I was awake before the 5:40am alarm this morning, thanks to the high wind gusts knocking something around. I'll have to remember to pull on the heavy boots when I get home and go look and see if there's a branch that needs trimming, or another tree leaning against the house. I'd rather not be woken up early every morning.
We were pretty lucky in Ithaca this morning. Blowing snow made the roads messy, but it wasn't nearly as bad as it was farther east and in the snow belt. Easy enough to get to the radio station to do the morning news and sports.
