In response to anticipated winter weather, the City of Everett has activated its Snow and Ice Removal Plan to ensure public safety and maintain accessible roadways. The Public Works department is committed to removing sand from the roads using its four street sweepers as the snow begins to melt. Residents can contribute by reporting road conditions to the Public Works 24/7 dispatch line, which operates based on the urgency of calls and available resources. The city emphasizes the importance of preparing homes for snow, cold temperatures, and possible power outages, directing residents to the city website for comprehensive resources. Clearing blocked storm drains is also a critical step residents can take to manage surface water and prevent flooding during winter weather.

Awareness of the weight of wet snow is essential, as it poses risks such as falling branches and roof accumulations. For real-time updates on road conditions, residents are encouraged to check Everett's traffic cameras and view priority snow removal routes. The city is dedicated to keeping the community informed and safe during winter weather events.
