For the most part, snow has stopped falling. Accumulations of about 2-feet plus are being reported throughout Prince George’s County. Firefighters and paramedics have responded to calls for service all day and will continue to do so throughout the remainder of the day. We are asking citizens and residents to remain patient and stay at home. Keeping the roadways clear of civilian traffic will allow road crews an opportunity to clear roadways of snow.

The snow has stopped; however, this does not give a green light to resume your normal activity. Public Safety officials remind citizens and residents that it is not yet safe to venture the roadways; in your car or on foot. As we enter the next phase of the storm, clean-up, we remind everyone:

A large number of pedestrians are intermingling with vehicle traffic on roadways as sidewalks are impassable from heavy snow. Pedestrians are reminded to use extreme caution in taking this dangerous path. If you must venture outside and you are walking; wear bright colored clothing and walk in the opposite direction of traffic flow. This will enable you to see oncoming traffic and to make sure you are visible to them.
