We spoke with a resident who lost power during the storm and is currently under a boil water advisory.
Early Tuesday morning a big rig got stuck in the snow when trying to turn into a parking lot along Chimney Rock Road.
For the town of Laurel Park, the boil water advisory is in place on Royal Drive because of a water pump outage.
The customers most likely to experience low or no water pressure are those in the vicinity of Timber Creek Road, Echo Drive, Robinson Lane, Apple Lane, and the portion of Laurel Park Highway between Echo Drive and Essowah Drive.
All customers are receiving the Boil Water Advisory.
This interruption of water requires issuance of a Boil Water Advisory.
The Town encourages all customers to use bottled water or vigorously boil tap water for 1 minute before consuming it.
Wait for the water to cool before using.
When water systems experience low pressure or lose pressure, there is an increased risk of contamination.
