- 🧊 Over 180 million pounds of snow have been melted, with crews melting more than 30 million pounds per day.
Approaching Deep Freeze and Slushy Conditions
- 🚗 Residents are urged to dig out their cars today, as today is the warmest day before a dangerous deep freeze.

Waste Management Updates
- ✅ The city is caught up on trash collection and compost collection is happening on its normally scheduled day.
- ♻️ Recycling collection is still about a day behind schedule, but residents are encouraged to put recycling out on its scheduled day without fear of a summons.
