Hobart, Indiana – Officials say all roads in Hobart are currently impassable as snow conditions continue impacting travel across the city.

According to the Village of Hobart government page and Hobart Fire Department, village snowplows will remain on roadways clearing snow until approximately 6 p.m. Sunday unless weather conditions worsen.

At this time, authorities say travel is not recommended anywhere within Hobart due to snow accumulation and hazardous roadway conditions.

Officials also announced that a snow emergency remains in effect, which means no vehicles may be parked on any village street or roadway. The restriction is intended to allow snowplows and emergency vehicles to move safely through neighborhoods while clearing snow.

If conditions deteriorate further, crews may temporarily suspend operations in the evening and resume plowing operations again around 1 a.m., according to the update.

Local officials say road crews will continue monitoring conditions and provide additional updates as needed while snow removal operations continue across the village.

The travel warning could impact students, workers, and commuters who may be considering evening travel or overnight shifts as crews continue clearing major routes and neighborhood streets.

Drivers are urged to avoid unnecessary travel until plows can clear roadways and conditions improve.

Authorities say updates will continue as snow removal progresses and conditions change.
