<\/p>\nSnowstorm hits Western Pennsylvania: See conditions in Monroeville<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t22. HI, FELICITY. HI, MIKE. WE\u2019VE JUST WALKED A LITTLE BIT FURTHER FROM THE LOWES PARKING LOT. NOW WE\u2019RE AT UPMC EAST, AND I WAS JUST LISTENING TO YOU GUYS TALK ABOUT HOW IMPORTANT IT IS WITH THE MAYOR AND THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ROADS ARE CLEARED FOR FIRST RESPONDERS. AND THAT\u2019S WHAT WE\u2019VE BEEN WATCHING GOING ON HERE. THERE HAVE BEEN PLOWS PLOWING THE PARKING LOT, ESPECIALLY FOR THE EMERGENCY ROOM FOR HOURS. AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE DO HAVE AN AMBULANCE COMING IN RIGHT NOW. AND YOU CAN SEE UP THERE GOING DOWN THAT WAY. THAT\u2019S ONE WAY THAT I GUESS THEY\u2019RE ABLE TO GO IN. I WANT TO SHOW YOU WE WATCHED A PENN HILLS AMBULANCE DRIVE TO THE HOSPITAL, AND HE ACTUALLY HAD TO COME DOWN THIS WAY, MOSSIDE BOULEVARD. AND THEN THIS IS THE ROAD THAT HE HAD TO DRIVE UP. YOU CAN SEE, I MEAN, YOU CAN\u2019T EVEN SEE THE ROAD TO GO ALL THE WAY UP AND AROUND. THAT\u2019S WHY WE\u2019VE BEEN SEEING THESE PLOWS OUT HERE FOR SO LONG. WE HAVE ONE RIGHT HERE. THEY\u2019RE WORKING VERY, VERY HARD TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE ROADWAYS ARE OPEN FOR PEOPLE TRYING TO GET TO THE HOSPITAL. FOR THESE FIRST RESPONDERS. WE\u2019VE BEEN SEEING SO MANY. HERE\u2019S ANOTHER PENN HILLS AMBULANCE COMING IN RIGHT NOW. IT LOOKS LIKE THEY\u2019RE GOING TO TAKE THIS ROAD. SO LET\u2019S JUST SEE HOW IT GOES FOR THEM. OBVIOUSLY DRIVING VERY SLOW. WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER, EVEN BIG TRUCKS WERE HAVING TROUBLE IN THIS ROAD. SO HE IS MOVING SLOW. HE\u2019S ON A MISSION AND HE\u2019S GOING TO TURN ALL THE WAY UP AROUND AND THEN GO INTO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. WE HAVE NOT HEARD THAT MANY SIRENS SEEN ANYONE COMING, BUT PEOPLE HERE ARE TRYING TO PROTECT THEMSELVES AS WELL. WE CAUGHT UP WITH SOME LAST MINUTE SHOPPERS EVEN LATER, WHO ARE TRYING TO PROTECT THEMSELVES FROM THE SNOW AFTER IT EVEN STARTED. LISTEN TO THAT, I WAS UNPREPARED. I HAD TO GET A COUPLE BAGS OF SALT AND POTENTIALLY A BLOWER IF THEY HAD ONE, BUT THEY WERE OUT. ONCE I GET THE SALT THAT I NEED, I\u2019M GOING HOME AND I\u2019M STAYING HOME. SO HOPEFULLY HE\u2019S GETTING HOME. AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE TOOK THE 376 TO GET HERE IS ABOUT DOUBLE HIS TIME FROM PENN HILLS. AND AGAIN WE\u2019RE AT THIS SUPER IMPORTANT INTERSECTION. WE HAVE THAT 376 OVER THIS WAY AND THEN OVER TO MY RIGHT. WE HAVE THE ENTRANCE TO THE PENNSYLVANIA TURNPIKE. YOU CAN SEE A TOW TRUCK GOING OVER WITH SOME CARS THAT WERE STUCK. WE\u2019VE SEEN DOZENS OF PLOWS. THEY HAVE NOT STOPPED. THEY, YOU KNOW, PENNDOT, MONROEVILLE, LOCAL COMPANIES, AND THEY HAVE JUST REALLY BEEN HANGING OUT IN THIS INTERSECTION, HELPING PEOPLE SHOVEL OUT THERE, MOVING AROUND. AND THEY\u2019RE TRYING THEIR HARDEST, DOING THE BEST THEY CAN. BUT AT SOME POINT, IT KIND OF SEEMS LIKE YOU\u2019RE JUST PUSHING THE SNOW AROUND. BUT WE HAVE ONE WORKING RIGHT NOW. SHANNON. MIKE, FELICITY, WHERE YOU ARE IN ADDITION TO UPMC EAST HOSPITAL, RIGHT DOWN THE BLOCK IS FORBES HOSPITAL. AND I KNOW THAT IN TIMES LIKE THESE, THE HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATORS, THEY OFTEN TURN TO THE LOCAL HOTELS. AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF HOTELS ALONG MOSSIDE BOULEVARD THERE. THAT\u2019S ALSO A VERY IMPORTANT THING TO KEEP THOSE ROADS CLEAR, BECAUSE YOU HAVE EMPLOYEES GOING BACK AND FORTH TO THE HOSPITAL. YOU SEE A LOT OF THOSE TRUCKS IN THOSE PARKING LOTS AT THE HOTELS AS WELL. OH YEAH, DEFINITELY. THERE\u2019S BEEN A PLOW WORKING AT THE HAMPTON INN RIGHT OVER HERE. LOTS OF PEOPLE GOING IN AND OUT. IT LOOKS LIKE SOME OF THE WORKERS HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CARPOOL, EVEN AT THE LOW. SOME OF THOSE WORKERS AS WELL, WHO ARE STAYING OVER. SO WE DEFINITELY HAVE BEEN SEEING THAT. AND THERE AREN\u2019T THAT MANY EMPLOYEE CARS IN THE PARKING LOT HERE, PROBABLY BECAUSE THEY\u2019RE RELYING ON THAT ONE PERSON WHO HAS THE TRUCK. THAT\u2019S WHAT WE\u2019VE BEEN SEEING. IT\u2019S ALSO INTERESTING, JUST WITH THE CARS THAT HAVE BEEN HERE FOR A LONG TIME IN THE PARKING LOT, I\u2019VE NOTICED THAT THE SNOW IS GOING SO SIDEWAYS THAT THE SNOW DOESN\u2019T ACTUALLY SEEM TO BE PILING UP ON THE CARS VERY MUCH. I THOUGHT THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS INTERESTING TO LOOK AT, SO THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL WHEN YOU HAVE TO WIPE OFF YOUR CAR TOMORROW. FELICITY. ANOTHER THING THAT WILL BE HELPFUL IS THIS BREAK THAT CHIEF METEOROLOGIST MIKE HARVEY IS TELLING US WE\u2019RE GOING TO GET SOON, GET A COUPLE OF HOURS. WE\u2019RE NOT GOING TO SEE SOME\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
