Seven city Public Works trucks are currently dispensing brine as an anti-icing solution for city streets, and if and when the predicted snow begins falling, the city will deploy up to 14 trucks to spread sand and salt.
The forecast is calling for one to three inches of snow this afternoon. According to the Weather Channel, there’s a 78 percent chance that could begin around 2 p.m.
The city’s Public Works division will first focus their efforts on major streets with inclines and declines, as well as any bridges or overpasses. Other major streets will be treated as needed.
The city has more than 5,000 tons of sand and 500 tons of salt stockpiled.
