The Georgia Department of Transportation says road conditions in Habersham are improving as temperatures warm slightly, but snow still remains on secondary roads and two lane state routes. GA DOT spokeswoman Teri Pope asks motorists to stay off the roads and let crews clear them.
Despite more than two inches of snow on the ground roads have been relatively safe and clear in Habersham thanks to the not-so-extreme temperatures and absence of icy precipitation.
Habersham County Road Superintendent John Stamey says the county’s five snowplows were out on the roads early this morning scraping the snow and laying down gravel and salt. That layer of defense should help if sleet heads Habersham’s way as predicted on Wednesday.
Now Habersham will continue to update road conditions in and around Habersham as this winter snow storm develops.
