Winter storm coming: What you need to know

The anticipated winter storm may cancel some events in the Fort Dodge area Saturday.

The Eggs and Issues legislative forum planned for 8:30 a.m. Saturday at the Bioscience and Health Sciences Building at Iowa Central Community College was still set to go as of Friday evening. The Greater Fort Dodge Growth Alliance will make a decision at around 6 a.m. on holding the event. Check the Growth Alliance’s social media for updates.

Due to the predicted snowfall, a parking prohibition will automatically go into effect on all residential emergency snow routes if there is an accumulation of 2 inches of snow or more, according to an announcement from the Public Works Department.

The parking prohibition will be in effect for 24 hours after the snow stops falling.

The emergency snow routes are marked with red and white signs. A map of the emergency snow routes can be found at www.fortdodgeiowa.org.
