Residents grappling with the recent snowfall are set to see a reprieve as the city gears up to clear the streets. In a statement obtained by the Ramsey City's Facebook page, officials announced that the snow is expected to "start tapering off towards evening." The announcement comes as a bit of solace for those tired of the winter's relentless bite. City plow crews are preparing to focus on the main streets on Tuesday, transitioning into a full plow operation set to begin sharply at 2:00 a.m. on Wednesday, as reported by the City of Ramsey.

Struggling to maintain normalcy amid the flurries, commuters are advised to exercise caution. Officials have suggested giving yourself plenty of space between your vehicle and others and reducing speed to reflect the treacherous conditions. Those looking to keep up with the latest on plow activity can do so by calling the Snowplow Information Line at 763-433-9852, a resource aimed to help residents navigate the wintry snarl.

As crews prepare to hit the streets, a vital reminder was issued to residents; parking on City streets from 2:00 to 6:00 a.m. is strictly prohibited. This window allows for the efficient curb-to-curb plowing necessary to restore the thoroughfares to their intended function. Vehicles that remain parked on the streets during this critical period may find themselves subjected to ticketing or towing per the City Ordinance, a move that underscores the city's commitment to an orderly and safe recovery from the walloping winter weather, according to the City of Ramsey.
