Police Chief Louis Dirker said, "so far, so good" about any reports of accidents in Stow as of 2 p.m. Good to hear, stay safe out there Stow!

It's a shame how small our service department has become. Roads used to be much better when they had more staff. Stretched too thin.

Well at 7:30AM Fishcreek between Graham & Kent roads was terrible. Cars sliding across multiple lanes. Cars that were unfortunate to have to stop at the light by Pizza Hut had a fun time trying to turn right up the hill. Side streets were in very poor condition and since school was in session if you had poor luck you got to drive down a side street and try to pass a school bus at the same time and almost get stuck in the snow.

I left my home in Stow at about 8am to take my friend in West Akron for her first radiation treatment.....Baird Rd was, and still is a mess. In fact, one of the garbage trucks went into the ditch on the rt 59 end. Speaking of RT 59, that was also a mess this morning-but as soon as I got to Silver Lake, the roads and Rt 8 were beautifully clear all the way to my destination. Seriously, MANY school bus' travel up and down Baird between Rt 59 and Graham Rd. It is 4:30 pm and it's STILL a mess.
