UPDATE: Plowing And Salting Of Brick Roads Will Start When Rain Stops, Mayor Says

UPDATE, 11 a.m.: Brick Mayor John Ducey tweeted this morning that a dozen trucks will be dispatched soon to plow slush and salt the township’s roads.

“12 trucks waiting for rain to stop to plow/salt. All roads are getting salt and the roads with 3+ inches of slush will get plows,” the mayor said on Twitter.

PREVIOUSLY: Anyone heading out on the roads this morning should plan to give themselves extra time as the snow that fell Saturday has turned into a slushy, slippery mess throughout Brick.

The town only received 3.5 inches of snow, according to totals reported by the National Weather Service, short of the 4 inches the town requires before it begins plowing.

Rain began about 8 p.m. and fell steadily through the night, but had tapered off to a drizzle by 5:30 a.m. Temperatures are hovering around freezing this morning, but are predicted to reach the mid-40s by early this afternoon before falling again Sunday into Monday.
