Norfolk County continues to feel the impacts of the ongoing winter storm, with residents facing both hazardous road conditions and scattered power outages.
Overnight snowfall has left roads, particularly side streets, covered in snow, making travel slow and potentially dangerous.
Motorists are urged to drive cautiously, reduce speeds, allow extra time for commutes, and remain alert to pedestrians and other vehicles.
County officials advise delaying non-essential travel whenever possible while road crews work to clear and treat surfaces.
In addition to challenging roads, many residents remain without power following the storm’s combination of heavy snow, freezing rain, and strong winds.
Hydro One crews are actively working to restore service, but scattered outages are difficult to address as each affected area requires individual attention.
Residents are encouraged to monitor the Hydro One outage map for updates and to exercise caution around downed power lines.
Officials emphasize patience, noting that crews are prioritizing safety while navigating icy roads and severe winter conditions to restore electricity as quickly as possible.
