Brattleboro Emergency Services is watching the Thanksgiving weather forecast and preparing for the first winter storm of the season. The storm is forecast to start on the morning of Thursday, November 28, before daybreak and last throughout the day. We anticipate that downtown snow accumulations will be less than three inches, with up to eight inches in higher elevations.
The snow is expected to be wet and heavy, which could cause downed trees and limbs, along with wires in the travel ways. Brattleboro Public Works crews are prepared for the storm and will be working throughout the day to keep roads, downtown sidewalks, and Town facilities open.
Please allow extra time for travel and check the condition of your vehicle and its tires to ensure it is ready for winter travel. If you experience power outages, please operate portable generators away from your home to avoid any carbon monoxide issues. If you encounter downed lines stay away from them and call 911.
We wish you a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
