It is doubtful if another snowstorm
comes along this winter which will be
colder than that which developed dur
ing the day Saturday and continued
during that night and throughout Sun
day. for while the wind which accom-
panied the storm Saturday night and
Sunday was not heavy the tempera-
ture was unusually low, lowering in
the vicinity of the zero mark. In the
opinion of many it was too cold to
snow, and from the small amount Of
snow which fell-about five inches
during the time that the storm was in
progress it would seem that the opin-
ion was we'll founded. At A. NJ
Sunday the mercury indicated from
six to ten degrees above zero and it
rose but few degrees for the day.
