Today, our community came together to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country, and to recognize those currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces and our veterans for their continued service.

After a rainy morning, the weather cleared and gave way to beautiful sunshine just in time for this afternoon’s Memorial Day ceremony.

The Stow DPW Team was honored to assist by preparing the grounds over the past couple of weeks and proud to support the logistics that helped make today’s ceremony possible.

As one storm winds down, the Stow Department of Public Works is working closely with the Stow Police Department and the Stow Fire Department to prepare for what is forecasted to be the most significant storm of the season.

Current forecasts are calling for strong winds, heavy snowfall, and the potential for power outages. As we know all too well in New England, conditions can change quickly. Please plan ahead, check on neighbors, charge devices, and avoid unnecessary travel during the height of the storm. Stay safe and give our crews the space they need to keep roads clear.

Due to tomorrow's impending storm, there will be an on street parking ban in effect from 12pm on February 22nd through 7am on February 24th.

The heaviest snow is expected to start around 6pm tomorrow evening. If you do lose power, please contact Hudson Light and Power directly at (888) 404‑4573 to report the outage. Outage updates can also be found at https://gis.hudsonlight.com/mpoweroutagemap/

Additionally, if you lose power and are in need of a place to warm up, the police station lobby is available.

Town officials will continue to work with public safety officials to monitor situation, and we will put out more updates if/when needed.

Stay safe and warm everyone and be sure to give an extra big thank you to our DPW workers who will be working extra hard during this storm!

Thank you Stow Fire Department for sharing this important update. Stow DPW will be out early monitoring conditions and treating roads as freezing rain moves in. Freezing rain can make for some of the most challenging driving conditions, so please slow down and use caution while traveling.

12/02/2025

The first snowstorm of the season has officially arrived, with snow showers moving through the area. The Stow DPW crew is out treating the roads, and we want to remind everyone to slow down and drive safely.

Sand/salt mix is also available for residents at the entrance to the DPW Garage at 88 South Acton Road.
