Snow Emergency
At this time, Baltimore City has instituted Phase 2 of the Snow Emergency Plan. Taken from the snow page on the City’s web site:
[Phase 2] means that all vehicles traveling on city roadways must be equipped with snow tires, all season radials or chains. In addition, parking is prohibited on designated snow emergency routes.
Citizens are encouraged to remove their vehicles from designated snow emergency routes as soon as possible in order to avoid being ticketed and towed. Residents who live near city schools equipped with a parking lot may utilize these lots to park their vehicles during a Phase 2 snow emergency. [Mt. Washington Elementary is not one of the schools on the list; the closest are Poly and Western.]
Parking on school lots is authorized only during a Phase 2 emergency. Once Phase 2 of the Snow Emergency Plan is lifted, citizens need to remove their vehicles from school lots as soon as possible.
The Baltimore City Snow Team is deployed at 100% and continues to salt and plow primary and secondary roadways. Roadways remain slippery and the city strongly encourages residents to stay indoors. Citizens who must travel are advised to drive cautiously and maintain a safe distance from snow plows and other vehicles.
How are all of you faring? Send in your winter weather pictures from this weekend and I’ll post them in a gallery.
