Residents Encouraged to Stay Home During Winter Storm

Escambia County residents are encouraged to stay home and stay off the roadways Tuesday, Jan. 21 and Wednesday, Jan. 22 as snow and ice are expected to create hazardous driving conditions. The National Weather Service in Mobile has Escambia County under a Winter Storm Warning beginning Tuesday, Jan. 21 at 6 a.m. through 6 a.m. Wednesday.

"Our message is simple: Stay home and stay off the roadways," Public Safety Director Eric Gilmore said. "The safety of our residents is our top priority, and road conditions will be unsafe for drivers over the next couple of days due to snow and ice. It is not worth the risk – please stay home and stay safe."
