Spring teases with sporadic warm temps

February 23, 2022 by Staff Writer

The crazy New England weather continues with wild fluctuations in temperature, rain, then snow, then warm spring-like days. Monday, 2/21/22, saw temperatures that squeaked just above 50 and sunny. A bit of a breeze made things feel cooler, but it was still very much a tease of spring. It took local photographer Kelly Smith to The Sawmill in Acushnet, where she captured these great shots.

The winter water flows on 2/21/22 at The Sawmill, 32 Mill Road, Acushnet, a park owned by the Buzzards Bay Coalition and open to the public, which includes trails along the Acushnet River, a water overlook, a footbridge over the river, and a fishway that helps fish migrate upstream.
