The season’s first major snowstorm is on its way.  A Winter Storm Warning goes into effect starting at 9am Tuesday (12/29) through 6pm Wednesday (12/30) for the No Coast Network listening area.  The National Weather Service says we can expect 4 to 6 inches of snowfall in the region….and then we get a wintry mix, including freezing rain late tonight that will make travel difficult.  The weight of the snow and ice could also knock down power lines and tree limbs.  Again, this Winter Storm Warning starts at 9am Tuesday through 6pm Wednesday.  Keep tuned to the No Coast Network for the latest weather updates.

The City of Sigourney will have a snow emergency in effect starting at noon Tuesday (12/29) until 24 hours after the storm stops.  This means no vehicles can be parked on city streets.  If your vehicle is still on the street, it could be ticketed and/or towed away.
