Beware the Ides of March

I'm calling BS on this story before it takes off:

"Right now, computer models are suggesting that some type of a storm accompanied by snow, sleet and rain will spread through the Ohio Valley, with a secondary storm taking shape somewhere along the Mid-Atlantic coast. The time frame for this potential winter storm would fall right around March 12-13.

"Hail Caesar!'"

What I Saw - March 6, 2014

It was a good day for carrying things around near 2nd & Walnut . . . 

 including a giant stuffed pig . . . 

and a desk.

Pizza robbery suspect arrested

From the police log:

ROBBERY ARREST

COLUMBIA: A 17-year-old Columbia youth was charged with robbery and simple assault after he assaulted and robbed a Domino’s Pizza deliveryman of a $60 pizza order on Feb. 23 in the 400 block of Walnut Street, police said. The victim suffered injuries to his face and mouth. The suspect is in the Lancaster County Youth Intervention Center on unrelated charges.

Vehicle collision leads to arrest

A Ford Mustang collided with a Nissan this afternoon on Route 462, near Glatfelter's Field.  The driver of the Mustang was given a field sobriety test by Columbia Borough police and was subsequently arrested.  The occupants of the Nissan, two women and a girl, appeared to be unhurt, although medical personnel at the scene checked the girl's condition.

The Mustang collided with the front driver's side of the Nissan.

The driver of the Mustang being given a field sobriety test.

Sidewalk still not cleared

This is the sidewalk along 462, near 6th Street, still not cleared and worse than ever.
A few minutes before I shot this photo, I saw an elderly woman carrying bags of groceries, trying to navigate this ice field.

What I saw recently

All the creature comforts you could want from a convenience store.

The rest you can get here.

Uh-huh

The leaking water has turned to ice at the Columbia Plaza parking lot.
