County Offices Closing for Storm Tomorrow; Make Preparations Immediately

Monticello, NY – Sullivan County Manager Josh Potosek is urging residents to seek warm shelter prior to – and to stay off the roads during – tomorrow's anticipated nor'easter.
“This storm will be substantially similar to Friday's blizzard which walloped Sullivan County and left many of us in the dark,” Potosek advised. “We are actively preparing for power outages, closed roads, and property damage. I ask that residents make their own preparations without delay.”
