  1. I live in West Easton, which usually puts out it's own snow emergency. About half an hour ago an Easton Police Car drove down Keystone Ave., in West Easton warning residents of the snow emergency. I have not yet seen a separate snow emergency warning for West Easton and their website is down. I believe Mayor Gross makes the decision for the snow emergency. Did the officer make a mistake and telling West Easton Residents to move their cars?, or has the snow emergency been activated in the West Easton area?
