As this storm system wraps, the City reminds residents that within 24 hours of the end of a snow event, property owners ought to have cleared their sidewalks of snow and ice to allow safe sidewalk access for pedestrians.

Again, the City asks residents to be safe and patient as this system moves through. If you are able, help your neighbors and those who may need it. Stay off the roads if you can and provide extra travel time so that you can slow down and travel safely. Give City, MnDOT, and St. Louis County plows plenty of room to operate safely. The City is extremely grateful for all plow operators throughout the city and region working long days and overnight to keep access to hospitals, for emergency vehicles, buses, etc. open and safe.
