The City of Ansonia is being impacted by a winter blizzard which will continue into Monday. Weather services are forecasting that we will receive well over a foot of snow. Additionally, the forecast shows the possibility of ice and freezing rain tonight.
Road crews have begun clearing roadways and this will continue throughout the storm. Residents are encouraged to limit their driving on city roads during the storm to allow for emergency vehicles and road crews to perform their functions.
All emergencies should be reported to the Ansonia Police Department at 203-735-1885. Any stranded motorists should immediately contact the police department.
There is a current parking ban on all city streets until 11 p.m. on Monday. Residents are reminded that no vehicle may be parked on a city street during this time. All public and school parking lots are open for parking.
All Ansonia schools are closed on Monday. All non-essential City of Ansonia buildings are closed on Monday. As a reminder, if the use of a generator is needed, please be sure to have it properly ventilated outside of your residence. All exterior vents for furnaces and dryers should be cleared of snow to prevent carbon monoxide build-up. Residents are asked to check on their elderly neighbors who may have difficulty at their residences.
Again, please stay off the roads as driving conditions have deteriorated.
