Ohio River Freezes at Pomeroy area for first time since 1917
The Ohio River near Pomeroy has frozen solid enough for ice skating for the first time in years, with ice forming near the Pomeroy Bena Bridge. Locals note earlier winters had ice above and below but not at this spot, and while river ice is not yet safe for skaters, ponds and streams see more skating this winter. Continued cold could strengthen the river ice further, stirring anticipation of river skating.
