DEARBORN, MI – Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud today declared a snow emergency for the City of Dearborn, effective 1:00 a.m. on Wednesday, February 2, 2022. The emergency is expected to be lifted at 12:00 p.m. on Friday. The announcement comes ahead of possible 8 to 14 inches of snow accumulations by Thursday night, according to the National Weather Service. The agency has issued a Winter Storm Watch for most of Southeast Michigan. A Winter Storm Watch is issued when there is “the potential for significant and hazardous winter weather within 48 hours.”
All vehicles must be removed from the streets by 1:00 a.m. on Wednesday, February 2 to allow for safe and efficient snowplowing. Emergency sirens will sound at 6:00 a.m. on Wednesday, and parking enforcement will begin shortly thereafter. Tickets for vehicles parked during a snow emergency are $80. Alternate parking areas are available for residents who do not have driveways.
