More than 60 City crews are plowing and treating emergency snow routes and arterial streets.  Crews are expected to begin plowing school and bus routes after 6 a.m., when plowing of primary and secondary routes is complete.  Heavy snow and freezing fog has reduced visibility.  Streets are snow-covered and responding well to treatments, but traffic may create snow-packed surfaces.  Drivers should be alert for reduced visibility, slick spots and black ice during the morning commute.

A National Weather Service Winter Weather Advisory is in effect until 6 p.m.  Snow accumulation of up to 5 inches is possible.

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.
