Howard Wilkinson

Update 1:20 p.m.:   Butler and Hamilton counties have lifted their Level One snow emergencies.

Original Post: All of Hamilton and Butler counties were placed under a Level One snow emergency at 7 a.m., according to the county sheriffs. 

Level One means that roadways are hazardous with blowing and drifting snow. 

Neil said that people in all Hamilton County municipalities, townships and unincorporated areas should immediately remove any vehicle or vehicles parking in a designated Snow Emergency Lane. 

The same applies in Butler County, according to the sheriff's department. 

Neil said the Level One emergency order would remain in effect until further notice. 

As of 9 a.m., the sheriffs of Clermont and Warren counties had not declared snow emergencies in their counties.
