Marietta, OH – The Washington County Sheriff’s Office announced Monday evening that all snow emergency levels have been lifted. Sheriff Mark A. Warden made the update at 6:24 p.m. on November 11, 2025, signaling improved travel conditions throughout the county.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, road conditions have sufficiently improved following earlier winter weather that prompted snow advisories. With this update, residents may resume normal travel without restrictions.
Snow emergencies in Ohio are typically issued in three levels, ranging from cautionary travel advisories to full travel bans during hazardous conditions. The removal of all levels means the county’s roads are now deemed safe for standard driving, though officials continue urging caution on rural and untreated routes as temperatures drop overnight.
Drivers are reminded to remain alert for isolated slick spots and to allow extra time for evening commutes, especially in shaded or elevated areas where ice can linger.
This marks the first full snow-level removal in Washington County since early winter conditions began affecting parts of southeastern Ohio over the weekend.
