When winter storms bring accumulating snowfall, City crews will dedicate their energy and efforts to ensure safe travel. Residents can provide helpful support by staying updated on weather conditions. As weather worsens, crews may be required to begin plowing operations. This may directly impact residents through the declaration of a Snow Emergency, which temporarily prohibits on-street parking on every City street in the community until snow plowing operations are complete.
During the winter season, residents will be kept apprised of conditions through a variety of information media. During Snow Emergency declarations, the City of Montgomery will utilize the CODERED notification system sending an automated phone message to every Montgomery resident that has registered on the City’s website to receive CODERED updates. The City also will issue media releases to the four major TV stations in Cincinnati (WLW-TV 5, WCPO-TV 9, WKRC-TV 12, and WXIX-TV 19) regarding Snow Emergency declarations indicating that on-street parking is prohibited.
Residents can also find information regarding Snow Emergency declarations on the City’s website, by becoming a Facebook fan, via Twitter, or by calling the City of Montgomery Snow Line at 792- 8345 for recorded messages that are updated approximately every 3 hours during snow removal operations.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Emergency Alert System (EAS) will be tested nationally on Wednesday, November 9th, at 2:00 pm EST.
The EAS test will impact broadcasters, cable television systems, wireless cable systems, wireline video providers, satellite digital audio radio service providers, and direct broadcast satellite service providers, all of whom are required by law to participate in the test. This test will last about 30 seconds, resulting in television and radio interruptions, and in some cases, total blackouts of broadcast and satellite services.
