Preparing for Weekend Winter Storm

A major snowstorm is impacting our area and is expected to bring heavy snowfall and hazardous road conditions over the weekend. Travel may quickly become dangerous due to snow accumulation, reduced visibility, and icy surfaces.

Residents are strongly encouraged to avoid driving unless absolutely necessary. Staying off the roads helps keep you safe and snow crews to operate more effectively.

To assist with snow removal operations, please park vehicles off roadways whenever possible. Keeping streets clear will allow plows and salt trucks to thoroughly clear snow and ice from our neighborhoods.

The extreme cold will complicate snow and ice removal efforts. The effectiveness of salt diminishes significantly when temperatures drop below 15°, and with the forecasted cold weather, hazardous road conditions could linger following the storm.
