County eyes youth program with federal grant backing
County officials seek 74 000 of a 1 2 million federal grant to fund a youth program for 120 to 150 youths in its first year. A program director will be hired, transport via a Sheriff Office van, and each participant must complete 20 hours of community service. The plan requires county and federal money totaling about 90 000 to 100 000 for year one.

Snowy weather hits several states with power outages
Linda Craft in Lacona New York notes the advancing heavy snow while stores report brisk winter item sales. Across northern Ohio more than 40 000 customers lose power as shelters open and Cleveland bans on street parking to aid plow crews. Two jets slide off runways at Hopkins International Airport causing temporary closures with no injuries. Kalamazoo County deploys all 28 plows and residents lament the early heavy snowfall. Maryland Garrett County records 2 to 4 inches as a weather system moves southeast from the Great Lakes with 3 to 5 inch expected locally.
