.@NormalILL's Public Works chief says all streets have received at least a first pass by snowplows. An afternoon lull in Wednesday's snowfall allowed crews to shift focus from arterials to clearing snow in residential areas. wglt.org/local-news/2022-02-… #BloNo #ilwx

Space heaters need space - at least 3’ from anything that can burn. Never use your oven or stove to heat your home or apartment. And since you’re stuck at home anyways, please make sure your smoke alarms work before you go to bed tonight. Stay in, stay warm!

Happy Groundhog Day! On the plus side there's no way he's seeing his shadow today! Think #EarlySpring! @illinoisstateu has received 7" of snow with 8-10" more possible. Be #SafeRedbirds but find some time to enjoy the snow! #snowballfight #snowangels #snowmen

Currently there are multiple vehicles around the Main and Beaufort area in Normal which are stuck. Driving is very dangerous at the moment and Officers have said some roads are impassable. Please consider staying home if you do not need to be on the roadways!!

We are strongly discouraging anyone from traveling during this storm but if you absolutely have to be out, do yourself a favor by not passing our plows. Conditions are going to be much worse in front of the plow.

🔶 TURN AROUND - DON’T DROWN 🔶 Numerous roads in town are flooded and it’s deceptively deep. Numerous cars are stranded and water is over their hoods. If you see water across the roadway, TURN AROUND. It’s not worth losing your car, or worse, your life. #BloNo #Ilwx
