Back in the deep freeze

A very cold Sunday morning began with the roar and rumble of snowblowers in Maryville as the first winter storm of 2015 covered much of the county with a blanket of white.

Between one and two inches of snow fell locally as temperatures plunged to near zero after reaching into the mid-30s on Saturday.

Pictured here is Karl Ritterbusch, one of the members of Hope Lutheran Church who scurried to clear the church’s sidewalks and parking lot in time for morning services. The church is located at 931 S. Main.
