In anticipation of snow predicted to begin Friday evening, Mayor Muriel Bowser will deploy the District Snow Team at 10:00 p.m. on Friday, February 16. Pre-treatment brine operations will begin this evening, on Thursday, February 15, at 7:00 p.m. on all snow emergency routes, including the National Highway System. The National Weather Service is forecasting that snow will begin late Friday evening and continue into mid-Saturday morning with an accumulation of about two inches.
Friday temperatures are expected to be in the mid to upper 40s and drop to the mid 30s Friday night. Due to the warmer pavement temperatures, pavement accumulation is expected to be less than one inch, creating slushy conditions for pedestrians, motorists, and bicyclists. Residential and commercial property owners should spread abrasives (e.g., salt, pet-friendly deicer, or non-clumping kitty litter) on their sidewalks before precipitation begins to reduce the possibility of icing and to prevent slips and fall
