Additional snow is expected, with roughly 1 to 3 inches of accumulation possible on Monday.

Causing Safety Issues

On top of snow-covered roads making driving impossible at times, the snow caused issues for local fire departments, and residents are now being warned about potential issues with their homes.

Fire departments in the hardest hit areas had trouble when responding to fires due to buried hydrants and equipment blocked by 3- to 6-foot snowbanks.

Residents are being urged they must clear heavy snow from their roofs before a midweek thaw and rain because that's going to add a lot more weight to existing snowpacks.
