Crews to report at 4 a.m. in case of winter weather

(Lawrence, Kan.) - The City of Lawrence Street Maintenance crews will report at 4:00 a.m. on Thursday morning to prepare for winter weather.  The forecast calls for a possible two-to-four-inches of snow to begin falling around 7:00 a.m. on Thursday morning.  Crews will review the temperatures and forecast at that time to determine best methods for treatment.

"Late storms like this are tricky to determine if we'll get snow, ice or rain," said Mark Thiel, assistant public works director.  "Either way, we'll be ready for whatever precipitation occurs."
