Emergency Management Coordinator Steve Mild has been meeting with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and National Weather Service officials, along with our local law enforcement officers, throughout the day, monitoring conditions and forecasts.
Mild urges in the strongest terms possible that people should refrain from driving if at all possible tomorrow, particularly on Loop 306 and the Houston Harte Expressway.
Mild says in an email:
“Given all forecasts, it is a foregone conclusion that the roads will be iced over in the morning making travel extremely hazardous.
“We don’t know how much precipitation we will receive. What is known is that the high for tomorrow is currently projected to be 29 degrees, and may be adjusted even lower. The high will not be reached until early afternoon. Because of that, whatever ice we have on the roads will remain there, and road conditions will not improve much, if any. The sub-32 degree temperatures are forecast to remain through Sunday afternoon.”
Mild is the emergency management coordinator for San Angelo and Tom Green County.
