Good morning, Lafayette.
🌲 Environment
Snow began falling on Saturday in Lafayette and West Lafayette, spurring residents to shovel driveways and sled at Slayter Hill during the winter storm (Jan.
24-25). Main roads were plowed though some remained challenging to navigate.
🏛️ Government
The City of Lafayette urged residents today to remove their cars from streets until plowing clears curb to curb — even off priority routes — to help snow removal crews during the snow emergency.
Following the city’s order will speed clearing conditions for safe travel.
