are you monitoring that activity or have to wait until it s all said and done? we re not sending anybody home. the snow plows are out there and will stay out there. the snow is coming down and the more we can shove aside is better on the next pass. we re looking at virtual stand stills on some roads backing up traffic. do you have a lot of road closures? main highways? we hope to not have roads closed when we can help it. there are periodic accidents and closures to clear the road area. we hope we will not have that situation today. people ought to stay put, if they can, and before they travel, do whatever research you can to find out what conditions are before you go. laura, from the virginia department of emergency management. good luck and thanks for talking with us. for more on this, i m join ed b weather channel, scott.
