Snowdrifts Hit Lorain County Roads In New Year Storm
Snow flurries blanketed Lorain County with up to six inches, the heaviest to date in the 1963-54 winter.

Ponds along Durkee Rd and a hedge removal south of Russia Rd worsened drift effects. Some schools opened normally. Midview and Firelands delayed openings remained possible as authorities planned makeup days.
