Granted, the weather doesn't necessarily feel like snow, but we've heard forecasts that February could be a big month for snow. And just in time, the Virginia Department of Transportation has now come out with a website where Loudoun County residents -- as well as Fairfax and Prince William County -- can see the status of plowing in northern Virginia neighborhoods.
Once it snows at least two inches, residents can find out the status of plowing at http://novasnowplowing.virginia.gov. The Web page activates when two or more inches have accumulated.
Users can enter an address in northern Virginia to see a color-coded snow map that indicates the plowing status in that area:
- Green indicates a neighborhood has been plowed.
- Yellow means plows are in progress in the neighborhood.
- Blue indicates plows have not yet started the neighborhood.
- Gray means the area is not maintained by VDOT. Cities, towns and some developments maintain their own roads.
Check out a video of how to use the webpage.
