A snowplow was dispatched in the Mississippi Delta to assist with winter storm conditions, according to officials. The operation took place along US 49 W in Sunflower County, where crews worked to clear snow and ice from the roadway.
Officials from District 7 shared a video of the snow removal effort, noting that it is uncommon to see a snowplow in the region. They continue to recommend emergency travel only in affected areas due to hazardous conditions.
Authorities urged residents to exercise caution and stay updated on weather alerts as winter weather persists across parts of Mississippi. The use of snowplows highlights the state’s response to unusual winter conditions in the area.
