City Crews Prepared for Snow This Weekend

The City’s crews prepared trucks and equipment due to light snow forecast for tonight, Friday, Jan. 5, and tomorrow, Saturday, Jan. 6. Pavement temperatures are expected to remain at or above freezing which should melt any snow on pavements; however, snow may become heavy at times and could overwhelm pavements. The City will continue to monitor the weather and will call out crews as needed for response.

The City’s crews are also preparing for snow early next week, with accumulating snow expected on Monday, Jan. 8, and overnight into Tuesday, Jan. 9. Temperatures will be low enough for snow to stick to pavements. Crews will be ready to work around the clock to plow and treat streets as needed.
