WORMS WILL BE ALL OVER THE PLACE

Speaking of watching your step, April showers not only bring May flowers but they also bring lots of worms to the streets and sidewalks around Western New York. It is great for birds, but not so great when you are taking a walk.

THE OFFICIAL DRESS OF SPRING IS HERE....HOODIES AND SHORTS

You will see them all over the place. Both guys and girls sporting the hoodie look while wearing shorts. The weather isn't quite warm enough for a tee or tank so you go with a hoodie, but the weather is too warm for pants, hence the shorts. Be on the lookout over the next couple of days, you are bound to see the hoodie and shorts look all over the 716.
