Steuben County's Travel Advisory Is Over

The Steuben County Office of Emergency Services and the Steuben County Sheriff’s Office ended the Travel Advisory at Noon today.  The winter storm which affected our region has moved on, but the slippery roads remain. 

 

Steuben County Director of Public Safety, Tim Marshall stated, “Steuben County was on the back side of the storm allowing drier air to move in pushing heavier snows to our East. The heavy snow that was predicted for our region was a little less than expected.”  Marshall said, road crews are out and still clearing snow and sanding roads today.  Marshall also said, The National Weather Service has issued a Cold Weather Advisory from 10:00 p.m. tonight until 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday.  Cold temperatures with below zero wind chills will make conditions dangerous to those exposed to the outdoors.  “In these colder temperatures road salt is less effective leaving roads snow covered and slippery, which could make travel difficult”, Marshall said.   

 

Remember, dial 911 for emergencies only.  For statewide travel conditions dial 511, mobile app or visit http://www.511ny.org/  For assistance with heating or shelter issues dial 211 for Steuben County Helpline.
