Sheriff Richard J. Devlin, Jr. has issued a No Unnecessary Travel Advisory.
Otsego County Sheriff Richard J. Devlin, Jr. has issued a No Unnecessary Travel Advisory for all of Otsego County, effective immediately, due to inclement weather conditions expected to persist for the next 18–20 hours.
Sheriff Devlin, in coordination with Otsego County Emergency Management, is closely monitoring weather and road conditions and will update this advisory as conditions change.
No Unnecessary Travel: Means that hazardous driving conditions do exist, and no unnecessary travel should take place. Matter of individual's judgment. Out of an abundance of caution, residents are strongly urged to remain off roadways, allow plow crews to operate safely and efficiently, and avoid placing themselves or first responders at risk.
The winter storm is forecast to bring heavy snowfall, high winds, and extremely low temperatures, creating hazardous travel conditions, slowing snow removal efforts, and impacting emergency response.
