Our plows are ready to go tonight for the 1st round of snow. Make sure you’re ready by following a few things:

➡️ Keep trash/recycling bins off the street
➡️ Don’t shovel or blow snow into the street
➡️ Shovel sidewalks within 24 hrs

Statistics are more than just numbers.
They are people: individuals and families who were directly affected by the improper use of fireworks in Minnesota last year.

With the forecast showing rain Saturday, the volunteer part of Christmas in May is canceled.
The good news is Christmas in May will still complete some projects that don’t require volunteers, so an impact will still be made on our community!

Crashes happening metro-wide this morning. Slow down and use distance as your friend!
With temperatures becoming or already sub-freezing this morning, wet roads will likely become slick. Stay alert, use caution, and keep your distance from others while driving! #mnwx #wiwx
ALT Why Do Bridges Freeze First? No ground underneath means the entire structure can be surrounded by cold air. Freezing isn't uniform, shaded parts can be icy while sunny parts aren't. Slow down before the bridge, as changing speed on ice is dangerous.
ALT Ice and Snow, Take It Slow. Did you know? Each year in the United States, there are over 1,000 deaths and 100,000 injuries due to vehicle crashes during winter weather. Clean off your vehicle before driving. Flying snow from cars causes accidents. Keep it slow, and don’t use cruise control. Roads can be slick even if they just look wet. Leave extra distance between vehicles. Stay especially far from snow plows.

It looks like Santa is going to get the full MN winter experience tomorrow (12/21) during our Santa Parade. We even got a special vehicle ready for Santa so he can stay warm.

DID YOU KNOW? For example, it’s illegal to drive 55mph even if the speed limit is 55mph if there is ice/snow on the road that is causing hazardous travel conditions ⤵️
