Working in the cold

Bundled up Milford Postman Sebastian Rapisarda is pictured Tuesday along his West Catharine Street Route. His route includes the entire west side of the borough and requires about six hours outdoors. The temperature soared to 19 Tuesday afternoon, but wind chills also went as low as -1 degree. “You get used to it,” he said. The wind and cold knocked out PPL power to about 8,300 homes in Lackawaxen and Palmyra for about three hours Tuesday evening. Predicted foul New Year’s Day weather is expected to clear by Sunday, but temperatures are not expected to rise above the 20s next week.
