Road crews still cleaning debris from a massive snowstorm on January 3 are again turning their eyes to the skies as another storm has us in its sights.

Today, Virginia Department of Transportation crews are preparing staff, equipment, and materials to mobilize Saturday morning in emergency response ahead of an anticipated storm that's expected to bring rain, winds, and snow to the area.

According to VDOT, crews will be ready to clear downed trees and debris, apply treatment materials to reduce icing and improve traction on Interstate 95, primary and high-volume secondary roads, and receive support from tree contractors, if required. Crews will remain on stand-by through the weekend as needed to respond to any hazardous road conditions.
