A stretch of bitterly cold weather is coming in with the threat of snow to join the mix.

On the WHOW Morning Show Thursday, DeWitt County CENCOM Coordinator Karen Clevenger says the cold tends to bring calls to the dispatch center regarding residents concerned about their neighbors.

Clevenger remind thats, whether it is snow that is possibly coming this weekend or any future events, particularly those that fall during the work week, not to inquire with dispatch about the conditions of the roads.
