Congrats, Eakin Elementary Eagles, on having one of the best painted plows in the City of Columbus! We're sad we couldn't be with you today to recognize your great work, but hope you're having a fun snow day! Keep your eyes open today, you might see your plow on the street!❄️ #SnowWarriors

Hey Columbus,

THE MORNING CHALLENGE IS CALM DOWN, NOT SLIDE DOWN ❄️

It’s OK to slow down, take your time, and enjoy the moment, we’re all moving in slow-motion HD today anyway.

Life is precious. Ice is disrespectful. So breathe, bundle up, and stay safe out there. 💙❄️

Snow is on its way...are you ready? Here's our Mayor with a quick Snow PSA!

Remember:
✅Give the plow plenty of space
✅Check in on your neighbors
✅Clear sidewalks for our neighbors who are walking
✅Give yourself enough time to get to your destination and drive slowly
