Here's an update from Town Manager Russ Dean on how Exeter is preparing for the snowstorm:
"We're assigning snow crews now and expect to be ready to go. We're going over supplies like fuel and everything seems to be good with 3,000 gallons on hand and plenty of diesel.
We're expecting light snow overnight, and tomorrow morning, with things intensifying tomorrow afternoon. No closures yet but we're going to play it by ear tomorrow during the day. But at this point, we'll be open for business as usual."

Here's advice from Exeter Fire Chief Brian Comeau on how to prepare for the storm:
"Get supplies now if you need to. Have some gas on hand for your generator in case you lose power. If you have to use your generator, keep it at least 10 feet from your home and do not run a generator in a garage. Carbon monoxide is very dangerous."
