Tacoma to deploy snow plows for streets as storm looms

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Feb. 10—The city of Tacoma is prepping its streets as a snowstorm looms.

The National Weather Service is predicting 4-6 inches for Tacoma with some gusty winds starting Thursday and through the weekend.

The city's Street Operations Division is deploying 12 snow plows, four sanding trucks and three de-icing trucks throughout Tacoma starting the early morning of Thursday and will continue snow operations throughout the storm event, according to a press release Wednesday.

"During a snowstorm event, city crews plow and de-ice streets on a priority level, beginning with primary arterial streets, followed by secondary and auxiliary routes," said the press release. "The time required to clear these routes depends on the intensity and severity of the snowstorm."

2. We'll see. When they predict storms in the PNW they deflate them.

3. All of 12 plows??

That's all they have for a city the size of Tacoma? And no plowing of residential streets??

Seems like a weak response.
