CEMETARY WREATH CLEANUP IS SCHEDULED FOR TODAY

Wreath Cleanup is slated for today at Bath National Cemetery.  The public is asked to help with the retrieval and cleanup of wreaths that were placed on Veterans' graves during last month’s Wreaths Across America Day in Bath National Cemetery. The event will be beginning at 10:00 AM. It is suggested to bring a rake or broom handle to facilitate carrying wreaths to the disposal trucks. Participants should dress based on weather conditions.

 

WHITEOUTS LAST NIGHT IN STEUBEN/ALLEGANY COUNTIES

Due to the heavy snow and strong winds on Friday night, the region was ripe for whiteouts.  And yes, there were whiteouts.  Callers told us that from the Route 36 area in Hornell to the roads on hills surrounding Hornell, to the Allegany County roads in Wellsville and Alfred, drivers were going very slowly because of the poor (terrible really) visibility.
