(Washington, D.C.) – D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has declared a Snow Emergency and Cold Weather Emergency in the city as the region prepares for its first snowstorm of 2025. The heavy white stuff is expected Sunday night and could impact the DMV through Tuesday. That means roads will be treacherous for drivers and everyone is urged to stay off the roadways.
Sharon Kershbaum – Director of the DC Department of Transportation spoke with WHUR News Director Renee Nash about the plan for clearing the city streets.
While the snow emergency is in effect, motorists may not park on snow emergency routes and vehicles parked on these routes may be towed. Find a map of the snow emergency routes at snow.dc.gov. Drivers are asked to move vehicles off the routes as soon as possible. Beginning Sunday evening at 9:00 p.m., vehicles still parked along snow emergency routes will be relocated. To learn where a vehicle has been towed, call the Towed Vehicle Locator office at 202-541-6083, or go to dpw.dc.gov/page/booting-and-impoundment.
