FROM THE LOGAN COUNTY EMA
Logan County is expecting another Winter Snow Storm to push
through the area Friday night into Saturday. The current
predication is that we could see 4-6 inches of snow with the
possibility of higher amounts. The main concern with this
system will be the wind. Winds are expected to increase to
20 mph with gusts up to 40 mph. Expect drifting and blowing
snow and the possibility of whiteout conditions. This will
make travel difficult so we ask the citizens to stay off the
roads. Stay Safe!!
Thank you |
