Get ready to bundle up, folks! A significant winter storm is anticipated to hit our region this weekend, bringing with it several inches of snow on Friday and Saturday.

Winter Storm Warning Issued:

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning for our area, effective from Friday morning through Saturday evening. This means significant snowfall is expected, with potential for hazardous travel conditions and power outages.

Snow is expected to begin Friday morning, intensifying throughout the day and into the evening. The heaviest snowfall is anticipated to occur Friday night and Saturday morning. The storm is expected to taper off by Saturday evening.

Travel Impacts:

Prepare for significant travel disruptions. Roads will likely become slick and snow-covered, making driving dangerous. If you must travel, exercise extreme caution, allow extra time for your commute, and be aware of potential road closures.

Power Outages:

Heavy snowfall can lead to downed power lines and potential power outages. Be sure to charge your electronic devices and prepare for potential disruptions.
