Winter Weather Resources

published: January 12th, 2024 by in Uncategorized

King County has many resources available to residents, including snow plow maps, floodwarnings, traffic cameras, ALERT services and tips on winter safety in numerous languages.

As a reminder, the Redmond Ridge ROA cannot plow the streets in Redmond Ridge. We do not own or maintain the public roads in our neighborhood and only King County has the authority and expertise needed for this job. Please use the resources below during snow and storm events.

Below are links to valuable resources:

Winter Business Hours

The Redmond Ridge ROA follows the lead of the Lake Washington School District during weather events. If schools shut down or are running late due to inclement weather, our physical office will be closed, and the ROA staff will work remotely.

Staff will be available by email and able to connect with residents throughout the weather event.
