This weekend, winter weather is expected to impact the area. Residents are advised to prepare and exercise caution.

Representative Halbrook emphasized the importance of safety during such conditions. "The best thing is of course to stay off the roads as much as possible when we’re experiencing heavy snow or ice. If you have to venture out, though, please stay informed on road conditions and pack an emergency kit in case you get stuck," he stated.
