Crews in Muskogee are gathering all their resources as Green Country prepares for the potential winter storm.

Right now, the major roads are OK, but the parking lots and side streets are different story. City manager Mike Miller said this weather doesn't hit Muskogee often, but his team is preparing as best they can.

"We're not prepared for 12 inches of snow because we don't get it that often," said Miller. 

City crews are gathering their limited fleet of snowplows for the weekend ahead. 

"We're going to have all of them on the road as soon as the snow starts falling. Even before prepping the roads beforehand with salt sand and brine,” Miller added. 

County crews are using smaller trucks to reach the more rural roads coated in ice. Commissioner Ken Doke said his teams are making sure those roads stay salted for the snowstorm headed our way.

"This ice is probably one of the more difficult things that we deal with,” Doke told News on 6. "These hills are very dangerous so there's a reason we have to come out here and salt the roads, because people are stranded here, and they can't get in and out.” 

Doke said snow is a lot easier to manage and said they have plenty of resources and plows for the snowy week ahead.

The city and county said they will have crews monitoring the roads 24/7. The city will also have help from ODOT in plowing major city roads as well as highways.
