Snow!

Oh the weather outside is frightful, but this press release from the City of Peoria is so delightful:

City crews are currently treating primary intersections, hills, and areas considered to be a hazard. Snow is expected to fall all of today and tonight with accumulations of up to 3 to 5 inches in some areas by Monday morning.

Motorists should expect snow pack on pavement and are urged to use caution and reduce speeds while traveling.

Drive carefully, folks. It’s usually during the first big snowfall of the season that the most accidents happen because everyone has forgotten how to drive on the stuff. If you don’t have to go out in it — that is, if you’ve no place to go — then stay home and let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

  1. Good advice.  Also note that the city is dropping sand and very little salt.  But, if you do drive, please bounce over to my site and read those winter driving tips.  🙂 

  2. it sure would help if schools started an hour later when there is a snowstorm.  Don’t tell me they can’t; they start earlier in the hot weather. 

  3. Just a reminder everyone:

    IF YOUR WIPERS ARE ON, YOUR LIGHTS ALSO MUST BE.  STATE LAW.

    Sorry for the caps, one of my pet peeves.

  4. Thank you mazr. That is one of my pet peeves. But also remember to turn the lights off when you get out even if its daylight. Dead batteries in the winter are a no no.
