Here is the situation report at 5 p.m. per the city of Danville:

• A winter storm warning remains in place. It is set to expire at 7 a.m. Monday.
• Precipitation is mostly sleet, with the transition from snow to a mix of snow and sleet taking place around 10:15 a.m. Sleet is expected to continue into the evening and then transition back to snow before ending overnight.
• Temperatures currently are 25 degrees, and they are expected to remain below freezing this evening and overnight. Reminder, any citizen in need of shelter should call the non-emergency number for the Emergency Communications Center. That number is (434) 799-5111, option 8. The center will arrange to meet the need.
• Public Works snowplow crews continue clearing major thoroughfares. They will continue to work on these streets until the sleet and snow ends. At that point, they will make a final pass on primary streets, and then move into the residential neighborhoods.
• Snowplow crews are working 12-hour, round-the-clock schedules. It is expected that crews will move into the residential neighborhoods overnight. Generally, it takes 24 to 36 hours after precipitation has ended to plow all residential streets.
• Below-freezing temperatures will make it difficult overnight for the plows to clear residential streets to bare pavement. Sand will be spread in areas as needed. Temperatures are forecast to rise to near 40 degrees on Monday.
• The Police Department has received reports today of five motor vehicle crashes that were weather-related. No injuries have been reported.
• Police continue to advise residents and visitors to not travel if possible. If you must travel, proceed with caution. Only the major thoroughfares have been pretreated. Remember that your car cannot start, stop or turn as quickly and surely on snow as it does on dry pavement, so think and drive accordingly. Also, be cautious walking in parking lots and on sidewalks.
• Currently, we have no power outages. Earlier today, we had two power outages. At outage affected 18 customers in the Davis Drive and Terry Avenue area off Piney Forest Road and Franklin Turnpike. A second outage affected 15 customers in the Medley Road area of Halifax County. Crews have restored power.
