Fairfield receives 6 inches of snow
Fairfield was buried in 6 inches of snow Monday night and into Tuesday morning. Some residents got up bright and early to clear their sidewalks and driveway, while others went at a more leisurely pace and cleared the snow in the afternoon.
Some people used the occasion to enjoy the great outdoors. Friends Tyler Cowan and Chris Iserman met at Chautauqua Park in Fairfield that afternoon to play disc golf on the 18-hole course. They said it was probably the deepest snow they have ever played in. To ensure he could find his disks buried beneath the snow, Cowan secured colorful ribbons to his disks.
