DENVER — While the near-record snowfall in Denver has stopped, temperatures will remain low this week (the thermometer isn’t expected to read over 40 degrees until Thursday) and travel conditions could be precarious moving forward.
As of this morning, the Denver Police Department reported that over 100 people had to be rescued from their cars at the airport.
RTD buses are not running and train lines are operating on a reduced schedule. The City and County of Denver’s plows are out Monday as well, but the city emphasized that the plows “do not bring streets to bare pavement,” nor do they carry deicing materials.
You can track the plows here.
If you are able, shovels are needed, too. In Denver, city officials are requesting people volunteer with the Snow Angels program to help shovel driveways and sidewalks for older adults and people who need regular assistance. In recent years, local charity organizations have struggled to find helping hands when it comes to snow removal, according to Westword.
You can find out how to sign up for the Snow Angels program, or request assistance from volunteers, here.
Fire agencies are also asking that people take time in their shoveling to clear out some space around fire hydrants.
