Please stay home. Be safe and stay warm. There is a good chance we will be closed tomorrow. If you’re scheduled for tomorrow I’ll be in touch once we see how the roads are looking in the morning.
Road conditions across Morgan County are getting worse quickly as ice continues to develop. Roads that were passable earlier are now becoming slick and hazardous, especially after dark.
Details from Morgan County Emergency Management Agency:
Travel is strongly discouraged at this time. If you do not have an absolute need to be out, please stay home. The safest choice right now is to avoid travel altogether.
We are seeing rapid ice buildup on roadways, with bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas icing first. Secondary, rural, and neighborhood roads are becoming increasingly unsafe, and vehicles are already having trouble stopping and maintaining control.
If travel is absolutely necessary, reduce your speed well below normal, increase your following distance, avoid sudden braking or sharp turns, and remain alert for black ice, which may not be visible.
Emergency responders and road crews are operating as conditions allow. Limiting unnecessary travel helps keep roads clear for emergency vehicles and allows responders to reach those who truly need assistance.
Continue to monitor official updates and make sure you are signed up for MorganALert to receive the most up-to-date local alerts.
We will continue to share updates as conditions change. Please stay safe and stay off the roads if you can. ❄️🚫🚗
