Snow Scenes #2

As the snow ends — just as predicted, at 1 p.m. — Main Street is plowed. Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, so it’s the perfect time to pick up chocolates, flowers, or gifts from local businesses. Plenty of parking, and no lines! (Photos/Annette Norton)

There were few reports of damage from today’s snow. But there was at least one downed tree. This is in front of Hudson Malone. (Photo/Annette Norton)

Meanwhile, elsewhere in town, an Amtrak train plowed ahead … (Photo/Aiden Schachter)

It’s hardly a nor’easter.

It’s not even a particularly big snowfall (yet).

But the first significant accumulation in centuries decades quite a while has reminded Westporters how pretty our town can be, even in mid-February.

Here are a few scenes:

“06880” photographer Claudia Sherwood Servidio says of this first-of-the-winter-snow photo on Cross Highway: “I was surprised to see a trick of light displayed a nonexistent full moon!”

Meanwhile, Jonathan Alloy captured this early snowfall scene.

Sunday Snow Scenes

Posted on January 30, 2022 | Comments Off on Sunday Snow Scenes

The timing of the blizzard that wasn’t — not in western Connecticut, anyway — was perfect.

We enjoyed a lazy day yesterday. Today we headed outside. The air was brisk, but bearable. There was enough snow for sledding, but not enough to make life miserable.

It was a perfect January Sunday. If you didn’t enjoy today, you’re not a real Westporter.

Winslow Park was one of many hills packed with sledders, tobogganers and snowboarders. One girl was frightened by a big dog.: “:Honey, it’s their park,” her mother said. “We’re just guests.” (Photo/Dan Woog)

Someone clomped out this message in Gina Ryan’s yard. “I love you too!” she said.
