Both home delivery and onsite meal programs offered through Vesper Hall will be suspended and all recreation programs are canceled tomorrow.
Due to this warning, the City of Blue Springs urges residents to avoid unnecessary travel tomorrow and move vehicles off all streets for the duration of the storm. Vehicles parked on streets impede plowing efforts and can slow emergency response vehicles.
