Sudden Valley Maintenance crews are currently plowing Association main roads, however the roads are extremely slick and travel should be avoided unless absolutely necessary due to the icy road conditions.

Sudden Valley Maintenance is recommending that if you must drive do so with chains and four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicles, as the conditions of the roads are dangerous. Reports from residents that have trekked into Bellingham indicate the county roads are in decent shape however road conditions within the city of Bellingham are slippery and much worse than anticipated.

Additionally, the Mayor of Bellingham has declared a state of emergency, and has closed all non-emergency response operations.
