Even with bitterly-cold temperatures, which are expected to continue, today's sunshine has helped clear some county roads. County Highway Superintendent Mark Clanton said the roads on the county snow route list are for the most part clear and passable, but side roads, especially in shaded areas, may still be treacherous, and there is a possibility of patches of black ice anywhere.
Clanton thanked local citizens for staying off the roads this weekend and today.
Bedford County Emergency Management Agency director David Kitchens said that TVA expects to see peak power loads tomorrow morning, but they have not scheduled any rolling blackouts at this time.
Convenience Centers will reopen Tuesday after having been closed Saturday and today. But they will open late and close early Tuesday and Wednesday. The bitterly cold temperatures affect the hydraulic equipment in the garbage compactors at each center. Hours will be 10 a.m. until 3 p.m.
