Mayor Bowser to Deploy DC Snow Team at Noon, Fri., Feb. 12; Pretreatment Begins Tonight and Will Continue Until Snow Begins to Fall
(WASHINGTON, DC) Mayor Muriel Bowser has directed the DC Snow Team to go into a full deployment Friday, February 12. The District will deploy about 200 plows by noon, based on weather reports that call for a coating to a half inch of snow to fall between Friday afternoon and midnight. Below-freezing temperatures may cause snow to stick to the pavement and affect Friday’s afternoon rush hour. The Snow Team will pretreat bridges and overpasses as well as the freeways and other major routes tonight and tomorrow until snow begins to fall.
