As we prepare for another outburst of snow, it’s important to know the meaning of the local Snow Emergency Levels as Logan County Sheriff Randy Dodds declares them this winter.
LEVEL 1
Roadways are hazardous with blowing and drifting snow. Roads may also be icy. Motorists are urged to drive very cautiously.
LEVEL 2
LEVEL 3
All roadways are closed to non-emergency personnel. No one should be driving during these conditions unless it is absolutely necessary to travel or a personal emergency exists. All employees should contact their employer to see if they should report to work. Those traveling on the roads may subject themselves to arrest.
Only the Sheriff’s Office can declare a snow emergency. Please do not tie up emergency phones (like 911) wanting to know what level has been declared. You can keep updated on 98.3 WPKO, on PeakofOhio.com, on the Logan County Sheriff’s Facebook page, or download the Sheriff’s Office app.
