Skiers rushed to the local ski slope as noted by the Marketing Director at the Nashoba Valley Ski Area, in Westford.

An unusual lightning storm on Oct. 21 fried technical equipment at Town Hall and left town employees shivering for a day. Warm, almost summer-like weather, that day, gave way to a cold front from the south, according to meteorologist Ed Cohen of Westford. The cold front contained bands of rain with thunderstorms resulting in lightning strikes and flash floods around the region.
