Happy New Year’s Eve!
A Snow Squall Warning is in effect for the area:
“Snow squalls are expected to become stationary, bringing the potential for significant accumulating snow. Winds have eased and blowing snow is less of a concern.
“Travel will likely be hazardous. Roads and walkways will likely be difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. Road closures are possible.
“Take frequent breaks and avoid strain when clearing snow.”
