Town officials are urging residents to prepare as Winter Storm Fern is expected to bring heavy snow to Reading and the surrounding area beginning Sunday, January 25. Forecasts indicate rapidly deteriorating conditions Sunday afternoon through early Monday, with impacts to travel, municipal operations, and services.

The Reading Police Department has announced that it will once again take a flexible approach to enforcing the Town’s all-night parking ban, implementing restrictions only when snow is predicted, except within the Downtown Business District where regulartions remain in effect at all times.
