LEVEL ONE

Roadways may be hazardous with blowing or drifting snow. Roads may also be icy. Motorists are urged to drive cautiously.

PLEASE DO ✅
✅Download our app and allow immediate push notifications
✅Follow us on social media for regular updates
✅Plan ahead for travel during inclement weather
✅Use your own judgment based on your driving skills, vehicle, roadway conditions and necessity to travel in order to determine if you should drive during a level

PLEASE DO NOT ❌
❌ Private message our social media accounts or call the Sheriff’s Office for the most current level, specific road conditions, advice, or permission to travel
❌ Increase the risk of an accident by traveling on roadways that have not been treated, unless necessary
❌ Brake or accelerate rapidly during hazardous conditions

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND ❄️
❄️ A level may not be issued each time it snows. Advisories are issued in real time based on actual conditions, and we are unable to predict when the level may be changed.
❄️ Our most recent post will reflect the current level (if the post has not been updated, the level has not changed). For immediate push notifications, please download the Athens County Sheriff’s Office app.
❄️ Snow levels exist for a reason and are issued by Sheriff Smith for your protection.
The fewer drivers on the road, the safer it will be for emergency personnel and transportation employees responsible for clearing snow and ice.
❄️ The volume of emergency calls drastically increases during inclement weather. Please do not call 911 or the Sheriff's Office unless necessary.
❄️ It is impossible to know the condition of every roadway in the county; however, Sheriff Smith works diligently to communicate with Deputies on patrol, ODOT, the Athens County Engineer, and Township Trustees to determine the level during inclement weather.
❄️ Visit https://www.athenssheriff.com/weather-classifications for general information regarding weather classifications.
