Well, it looks like the major storm is over--there's 22" on the table on my back patio. Looking out the window of my downstairs office I see a clear sky--looking north and what I think if just wind blown snow "flurries"!
I realize most of you will be doing the same as I will and trying "vainly" to dig your driveways and cars out so you can get down the hill to work. The Hwy 2 cam shows Hwy 2 is open but the covered with snow so be care out there...
If you have time and your hydrant is close by your home I--and your neighbors--would appreciate you clearing the hydrant before you start clearing your driveway.
In any case I know it may not be a priority but please take the time to do some clearing before leaving Wrightwood--the home you save might be your own!!!
If you cannot get your adopted hydrant cleared within the next 24 hours or if you have a health or fitness condition which you are concerned about please let me know by email and either I will try to get by or I will contact the fire department or the water company.
I/we appreciate the effort you make to keep our village safe.
I apologize if you received this email in error as I haven't had time to update my list.
