We anticipate this weather system to produce a consistent snowfall over a long period which will keep us on 12-hour shifts for an extended time

ODOT is preparing for what may be the most significant snowfall of the year which is expected to begin late Sunday or early Monday and continue into Tuesday.

"We anticipate this weather system to produce a consistent snowfall over a long period which will keep us on 12-hour shifts for an extended time," said Rod Nuveman, ODOT District 1 highway management administrator, based in Lima.

"We also expect reduced visibility. This snow is predicted to be dry so the accompanying winds of up to 25 miles per hour at times will factor in," he said.
