Keeping it safe: Custodian Roy Riddle clears ice from the courthouse steps on Monday morning. The day-long deluge of freezing rain kept Roy busy. “I have cleaned the sidewalk three times,” said Riddle. He received help from the county bridge crew.
After a January of some of the coldest temperatures to be felt around here in years, winter kept its icy grip on Harrison County last week when an ice storm caused numerous accidents and closed schools and businesses once again.
Icy roads resulted in all Harrison County schools dismissing early on Monday when freezing rain began to fall.
