Kerrville officials are asking people to shelter in place and stay off roadways

The Kerr County Sheriff’s Office is asking citizens to shelter in place and stay off roadways, if possible. “Please shelter in place and do not drive. If you must drive, be sure to prepare with food, water, a heat source, blankets, and other necessities in case we cannot reach you.”

The Kerrville Police Department warns drivers that “pretty much any incline presents a challenge.” KPD also wants residents aware of current street closures including Holdsworth Drive and G Street.

Loop 534 is closed at Sidney Baker Street. Anyone driving on other sections of Loop 534 should drive at least 10 MPH under the posted speed limit with their headlights turned on.

According to the Texas Department of Transportation, all of Kerr County is currently covered with ice and/or snow and roadways are considered extremely dangerous. Emergency crews may have difficulty responding to calls.
