Safe travels, #btv! See the heads up below about some additional expected snow today. DPW crews have been on the road all night and are out today. Low temps/blowing snow can make these challenging conditions to maintain and drive on. If you must travel, please go slow!
Heads up! A Lake Effect snow band has formed over Addison and western Chittenden Counties. Under the band, expect an additional 1-3 inches of snow to fall. Storm total snow will reach 3-6 inches, especially along the Route 7 corridor in southern Chittenden and Addison Counties
