WILLIAMS — After the heavy rainfall throughout the day yesterday, Williams was expecting a little more snowfall than they woke up to. For the most part it was simply icy roads and slippery sidewalks and cold.
The weather kept the Williams Fire Department awake a better part of the night as they stood by an arching transformer to prevent a catastrophic fire. Power failed in the area of Edison and fluctuated throughout the City of Williams through the night.
The Super-8 motel reported a power outage this morning. The Williams Police Department is investigating other power outages in the area of Bearizona. Bearizona could not be contacted for confirmation. Sherwood Forest is out of power. Some emergency services are reporting problems with their repeater on Mingus Mountain.
Thankfully there have not been any major incidents reported on the freeway.
While Williams proper may have received a little snow, the outlying areas usually experience more snow. There may be the predicted two-inches of snow out Perkinsville Road, on Highway 64 and other areas.The next predicted chance of snow, according to the long range forecast, will be Friday with a slight chance predicted.
