TTPD some good news and some bad news for us this morning. Crews are working on getting the roads cleared, please wait for the “all clear” notification.
The good news is that the storm has passed to the east so we are not gonna get any more snow – hopefully for a really long tone.
The bad news is that the roads are still bad. While temperatures are expected to get above freezing (barely) later this afternoon, the snow and ice that we have now isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. The packed snow that’s on the roadways is now a sheet of really thick ice. The flyover that goes to both east and westbound Interstate 30 is still closed.
Road crews are out again early this morning sanding and plowing streets as quickly as they can, but it’s going to take a while to get done. They’ll be focusing on major roadways.
We can all see the light at the end of the tunnel, but we’re not quite there yet. As we’ve been saying all week, please stay home today unless you absolutely have to be out. If you do have to, please be very careful.
