A winter storm is expected to impact the Brattleboro area beginning during the late night hours of Sunday, Feb. 22 and continuing through Monday, Feb. 23, 2026. Possible impacts include:
- Snow-covered roads, especially during the Monday morning commute.
- Periods of reduced visibility during heavier snowfall.
- Gusty winds that may lead to blowing snow and tree damage.
- The potential for scattered power outages.
Parking Ban Reminder: The Town’s winter parking ban remains in effect. There is no
overnight on-street parking after midnight. Residents are strongly encouraged to avoid
on-street parking altogether during the storm to prevent impeding snow clearing
operations and emergency access. Keeping roadways clear allows crews to safely plow
the full width of streets.
Salt Supply Notice: Like many communities across the region, the Town continues to
experience impacts from an ongoing regional road salt shortage. Crews will prioritize
treatment of major routes, intersections, and hills, but road conditions may take longer
than usual to improve during periods of heavy snowfall.
Public Safety Reminders:
- Use caution if traveling during the storm, especially during the morning hours.
- Give plow trucks and emergency crews plenty of space to work.
- Stay well clear of any downed power lines. Always assume they are energized.
- If you encounter downed wires or a life safety emergency, call 911 immediately.
- Check on elderly neighbors or those who may need assistance.
- Prepare for the possibility of brief power outages.
Town crews will be actively monitoring conditions and working in coordination with public safety partners throughout the storm. Additional updates will be provided as needed.
Stay safe, Brattleboro.
