Beginning at 12:01 a.m. Thursday, 20 City crews will begin patrolling arterial streets, school and bus routes applying de-icing brine and granular salt, pre-wet with brine as needed.  Additional resources are on standby if plowing is required.

The National Weather Service forecasts sleet changing to light snow overnight, with light icing and up to 3 inches of snow possible.  Currently, arterial streets are dry, but drivers should be alert for slick spots and black ice during the morning commute.

Please stay informed on the status of snow operations in Lincoln.  Additional information is available on the City website at snow.lincoln.ne.gov.  If you have questions, you may call the Transportation and Utilities Snow Center at 402-441-7644.
