Due to winter conditions, Sussex County government offices will open at 10 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 20, 2025.

A winter weather advisory remains in effect until 1 a.m. Thursday as the third winter storm of the season has left parts of Sussex County - mostly along and south of the U.S. 9 corridor - snow-covered Wednesday evening. Motorists are reminded to use caution, allowing themselves additional time and adequate distance from other vehicles, while traveling on area roads, particularly during the Thursday morning commute. Delaware Department of Transportation crews will be conducting plowing operations to clear roads of snow, but icy spots could remain throughout the day Thursday as temperatures are expected to remain at or below freezing until at least Friday.

Please stay tuned to the County's website, social media channel, and local media for any pertinent updates, which will be issued as warranted.
