Edgemont hit hard by snow storm

The Edgemont section of Greenburgh has been hit hard by the continuing snow storm today.

Edgemont civic leader Bob Bernstein said several homes in the area do not have heat, power or telephone service and because of the downed trees, some residents have no ability to get their cars out of the driveway and seek shelter elsewhere.

Bernstein has also notified Greenburgh Police of live wires that still remain on the grounds of upper Old Colony Road.

Earlier today the town of Greenburgh declared a state of emergency and advised residents to remain home if possible.

STUNNING work!! awesome!!!this is the kind of stuff i live for. unafutrnotely, when you finally get to the end of the quest, so often the grail-shaped-beacon so to speak is disappointingly less magical than what you had hoped to find. still though, great sleuthing!as far as the origin of the name Farcus Hott, i would try looking up the individual words, and variations of the words in some language dictionaries in the library. i’ll bet it’s a corruption of some old Dutch words. if i had to hazard a guess right now, i would bet that the name means Farcus’ Height, or Hill. As in, a property owner or some other important person’s name in the possessive, followed by what looks like it could be a Dutch-ey word for an elevated mound or hilltop.
