 Winter weather could soon be on its way and Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 12 is ready to deal with a multitude of scenarios. Snow and ice, downed tree limbs, and other obstructions are to be expected, but the cabinet has the necessary tools and experience to deal with it. If there's something blocking the road, the cabinet advises contacting them at 877-367-5982. We prepare for snow and ice season well before the season even begins. So we usually prepare for that in the fall, usually around October, and we go ahead and we make sure that we've got plenty of our de-icing agents made up and on hand. We have all of our salt domes filled. We make sure that our snow plows are up and working, that we have all the plows attached to the trucks and things, so that when winter weather does arise, and we do get called out to maybe at odd hours of the night or early morning and things, we can be ready. We have a 24-hour monitoring crew that we're always checking the weather. We partner with the Jackson Weather Service, so we get good updated data, and we know what's coming ahead of time and what to do in the end of the year. Appalachian Wireless just can't stop themselves. Give the iPhone 13 128GB for a penny with a two-year contract on the Mix and Match or Unlimited Plan. New or renewed line, while supplies last. One penny for an iPhone 13. We are you. We are Appalachian Wireless. If snow plows are needed, be mindful of their size and the chemicals they're using. Following too closely can either cause a collision or chemical contact. If you do encounter a snow plow, even if they're not plowing snow, but they're putting down one of these de-icing agents or anything like that, please give them plenty of room to work. You don't want to get close to them, especially if they are using a de-icing agent that's not good for your vehicle, and they can't see you as well. If you get too close up on them, they cannot see, so please give them plenty of room. Do not crowd the plow. And then also, when we do have these winter weather events, make sure that when everything has settled and you can get out to spray your vehicle off, spray off the undercarriage and things, and that will really help extend the longevity of your vehicle.
