(KLZA)--The Richardson County Road Department, like several others in the area, are pulling machinery off the county roads.
As soon as an area is cleared, a release says the blowing snow is drifting the area right back shut.
The Road Department plans to begin clearing roads Saturday morning, if the weather allows.
Any resident that lives out in the county that has an emergency is asked to call 9 1 1 and dispatchers will contact the Road Department so they can assist in clearing a road for emergency service vehicles.
