The Blizzard Warning begins at 7 am Tuesday, April 12th, and goes through Thursday, April 14th until 7 pm. Heavy snow is expected with this storm and a lot of wind. Blizzard conditions and total snow accumulations between 12 and 24 inches. You read that right, anywhere from a foot to two feet of snow is possible combined with winds gusting to 50 miles per hour.
Impacts include that travel will become very difficult to impossible. Widespread blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. If you do have travel plans for Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, you should consider leaving today.
Travel during the storm should be restricted to emergencies only. If you must travel, have a winter survival kit with you. Notify a friend or family member of your travel plans.
