SET FOR 8.15, ITS BILLS PART HERE. TOMORROW NIGHT’S BIG PARTY INDY. ALL RIGHT. WELL, AS THIS WINTER WEATHER EVENT INCHES CLOSER, SOME COMMUNITIES ARE LOOKING TO IMPROVE. >> ON THEIR SNOW RESPONSE FROM LAST MONTH. THAT INCLUDES THE CITY OF BUFFALO WHERE NEIGHBORS FOUND THAT HIGHLY TOUTED GPS TRACKING SYSTEM IN CITY PLOWS WAS NOT RELIABLE IN NOVEMBER. BUFFALO’S PUBLIC WORKS. COMMISSIONER SAYS THE PROGRAM SHOULD PERFORM BETTER THIS WEEKEND. >> WE’VE BEEN IMPROVING THE SYSTEM. THE ACCURACY IS THERE. SO WE’RE MORE HIGHLY FUNCTIONAL AND MORE ACCURATE THAN WE WERE IN THE LAST STORM. SO SO WE’LL SEE

I THINK A BETTER PRODUCT FROM FROM THE RESIDENCE STANDPOINT THAT WE SEE WITH MORE ACCURACY. >> AND MARTIN SAYS CREWS WILL BE PRE SALTING THE ROADS TONIGHT. THE CITY DOES NOT EXPECT ANY DISRUPTIONS TO GARBAGE SERVICE IN THE DAYS AHEAD. WELL, THE SOUTH TOWNS EXPECTED TO BE THE HARDEST HIT AREA. ONCE AGAIN, OFFICIALS THERE TELLING ME THEY’RE NOT COMPARING THIS STORM TO THE ONE WE HAD IN NOVEMBER, BUT THEY DID LEARN SOME LESSONS. WE BROUGHT YOU SEVERAL STORIES FROM HAMBURG FOLLOWING LAST MONTH’S HISTORIC SNOWSTORM. SOME NEIGHBORS STILL SNOWED IN DAYS AFTER THAT STORM PASSED. I

WENT BACK TO HAMBURG TODAY TO SPEAK WITH OFFICIALS AND NEIGHBORS ABOUT WHAT THEY’LL DO DIFFERENTLY THIS TIME AROUND. >> I’M HOPING THAT THEY KEEP UP WITH THAT THIS TIME, ESPECIALLY WITH THE BILLS GAME HAPPENING. DAVE WHITE IS NEIGHBORS ON NASHVILLE HAMBURG OR SNOWED IN DURING THE NOVEMBER

STORM. SEVERAL DAYS TO CLEAR THEIR STREET. MANY OTHERS. HE HOPES THAT DOESN’T HAPPEN AGAIN. I MADE SURE THAT THE BLOWERS GASSED UP. THE TIRES ARE FILLED THIS WAY. YOU CAN START RIGHT WHEN THE SNOW STARTS COMING DOWN. AND, YOU KNOW, WE DON’T GET TRAPPED THIS TIME AROUND HAMBURG TOWN,

SUPERINTENDENT TO PREPARE FOR THE FORECASTED SNOW. >> WHAT DID EVERYONE LEARN FROM THE LAST STORM? >> SO WE LEARNED NUMBER ONE, WE WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF IT. WE HAVE TO. WE HAVE TO START EARLY AND WE HAVE TO GET THAT SALT DOWN AND WE HAVE TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE PUBLIC. >> SO WHAT DO YOU WANT TO TELL THE PUBLIC NOW BE PREPARED? >> BE PREPARED. MAKE SURE YOU GET

YOUR SHOPPING DONE TODAY. BE READY FOR A COUPLE DAYS. SHARE ON OUR BUFFALO BILLS FROM THE LIVING ROOM. IF YOU CAN’T, IF YOURS HAVE A TICKET, THOUGH, IF YOU HAVE A TICKET. >> POWER POOL, HAMBURG EMERGENCY MANAGER SEAN CROTTY TELLS ME IT’S ESSENTIAL FOR THE PUBLIC TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO INFORMATION FROM OFFICIALS. THEY NEED TO KNOW TO ALLOW THEMSELVES A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME TO GET TO AND FROM THE STADIUM. WILL RESIDENTS IN THIS AREA NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE THIS TIME AROUND? >> WELL, THEIR STRATEGIES, ALL THE PLOWS ARE COORDINATED COMING OUT DURING HALFTIME AND

STARTING TO PLOW SNOW THROUGH THE START OF THE GAME THROUGH HALFTIME INTO THE 4TH QUARTERS THAT ONE. >> PEOPLE START TO LEAVE THE GAME. THEY HOPEFULLY CLEARED STREETS IS EVERYTHING IN PLACE IS EVERYTHING READY TO GO? WE’RE WORKING ON >> THE WHITE SAYS HE’S READY FOR ANYTHING AFTER THAT NOVEMBER STORM WHEN THEY WERE TRAPPED WITH THEIR YOUNG SON IN RUNNING OUT OF FOOD AND HAVE ENOUGH FOOD FOR USE ON. OH, YEAH. OH, YEAH. WE HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH TO SEND LAST TIME YOU ARE. YOU’RE RUNNING OUT? >> YEAH. YEAH. HE WAS EVEN EVERYTHING BUT HE’S
