Ice coats branches and berries, creating a crystal showcase of local trees and shrubs. Unfortunately, the ice coating caused damage to many trees as the first major winter storm of the season arrived. An estimated 9 inches or more of snow is expected to fall tonight (1/5) making for hazardous driving and school closings.

A light snow and much colder temperatures arrived with the first day of winter, turning the Mississippi River at Leach Park into a frosty scene. Warmer temperatures, expected to reach near 50 degrees later this week, are expected to melt the light snow which arrived Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Bettendorf overwhelmed Muscatine Tuesday (12/14) by 30 points and defeated Davenport Assumption 49-42 on the Knight's home court (12/17), but came up three points short against Rock Island Alleman in the Iowa-Illinois Shootout Saturday (12/18). The Bulldogs let a nine-point lead slip away in the third quarter and a couple last second three-point shot-attempts didn't fall. The final was 38-35. Alleman, a pre-season favorite in the Western Big Six, was led by its 6-9 postman Lance Young with 17 points. The Pioneers were coming off a blow-out loss to Moline High the night before. Bettendorf will play winless Davenport West Tuesday (12/21). Below, Bettendorf center Mike Vandello tips off the game against Alleman's Lance Young at Augustana College's Carver Center.
