Orsha was hit by cyclone Francis. Utility workers went out to fight the elements
Last night, a cyclone named Francis hit Orsha. The snow is falling continuously. Strong winds are piling up large snowdrifts.
Since the evening of January 8, utility workers and road crews have been battling the elements: clearing roads, sidewalks, and pedestrian areas. However, the unceasing snow is covering everything again.
Snow removal in Orsha is taking place not only on the central streets but also in yards and on the adjacent territories of enterprises and organizations. Let's support those who are currently on the front lines of the snow battle. Don't wait for someone to clear it for you — start with yourself! Join in!
We remind you that this weather will persist throughout the day. Be careful and attentive. Take care of yourself!
