On and off showers and wet snow showers will stay in the forecast for both today and Friday. High temperatures remain unseasonably chilly. Temperatures will only manage to top out in the 40s.
It looks like minor improvements will take place this weekend with drier weather and highs in the low 50s. Showers return to the forecast early next week with highs remaining in the 50s Monday and Tuesday.
Temperatures should return back to more seasonable levels by midweek with highs just above 60. "

Over the weekend we had an all-too-brief burst of real Springtime
and traditional "celebrations" took place:
Men either went biking or burned off barbecue grills while the ladies got down to the nitty-gritty of gardening.
Virginia Sparks and friends cleaned out the flowerbed in front of the Schoolhouse Apartments ....
while others raked and weeded, getting hands and knees muddy for the first time this year .....
................... and Waterville Times editor Patty Louise celebrated with a tour around town on her new touring bike before she, too, tackled yardwork.
Daffodils bloom .....
.................. patches of bright blue Scilla make "ponds," here and there ............
............ and in the woods there are more and more Hepaticas every day !
One of the best sights of early Springtime, the Hellebore or
"Lenten Rose" is blooming in Root Glen.

FOR THE RECORD
Public Hearing that was adjourned on April 20 and immediately rescheduled for May 4, has now been moved ahead to Monday, May 11.
This additional delay has been necessary in order to comply with New York Village Law 7-706 found on page 99 of the "Guide to Planning & Zoning Laws of New York State (2011)" which reads:
The next issue of The Waterville Times, the designated "official newspaper" for the Village of Waterville, will not reach readers until April 29 - allowing less than the ten days required between publication and the proposed May 4th date.
Setting the Public Hearing date as May 11 more than satisfies that criterion.

Have a good weekend, everyone!
