Sussex County is activating its Emergency Operations Center and prepositioning paramedics at local fire stations this evening in preparation for a major winter storm, still expected to bring well over two feet of snow to parts of the region.
The National Weather Service's blizzard warning remains in effect for all of Sussex County, from now until 7 p.m. Saturday. Forecasters are predicting a range of 18 to 30 inches of snow to fall across the area overnight and well into Saturday.
The snow, possibly mixed with sleet and rain, could fall at the rate of 2 inches an hour, with 30 mph winds and visibilities under one-quarter mile, resulting in whiteout, blizzard conditions. Tidal flooding also is possible with this potentially dangerous coastal storm.
