Weather factoid that didn't make it into my "Winter storm" story today. The snowfall total record for Johnstown from Oct 1 through Jan 4 was 116 inches (1978) That's not the entire winter – just the first half of the snowfall season. (Total this season is just under 4 in.)

All's "Fair" Local youth are getting ready to show off their livestock - and a year's worth of work leading up to the moment - at the #SomersetCounty Fair. This is the event's 124th year.
