Some wintery weather photos from this morning at Emsworth Locks and Dams on the #OhioRiver. I have so much respect for lock operators who work in all kinds of weather conditions all year round, especially in #Pittsburgh where weather conditions can swing wildly each season. 📷 for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District
