Our team has been working since before the snow began to keep airfield surfaces treated and cleared. Visibility has been limited at times, precipitation heavy and of various types. We're not just working for today, but to minimize impacts to upcoming days. (1/2)

Don’t Crowd the Plow” – NEVER pass a snowplow or plow train. The safest place is a few car lengths behind them. If you must travel, make a plan and check chart.maryland.gov/ to get the latest travel & pavement conditions #MDroads #Stayalert

Roads are still slick, and our crews are hard at work clearing them. Please stay off the roads and remain indoors until conditions improve, if possible. Let’s all do our part to stay safe and give road crews the space they need to work.

Power outages are certain for some, especially in areas where the heaviest ice will accumulate on trees and powerlines. The cold can be deadly--but even without power, there are still ways to warm things up. Closing blinds and curtains and closing room doors can help contain heat, and stuffing towels in the cracks under doors can help keep the warmth in. Don’t forget about eating and staying hydrated - food provides energy to warm the body. Learn more about winter safety: weather.gov/safety/winter
