Although the roads are in fair condition right now and the weather is calm, we are still in the middle of the storm warning. We anticipate another 6-12" over the next 24-hours with 3–5 inches of snow expected between 6 a.m. and 9am. Strong winds up to 45 miles per hour will result in blizzard like conditions through tomorrow. Continue to minimize travel to emergency purposes only. Thank you.
