Lower Makefield prepares for storm

Among the towns preparing for the forecasted snowstorm is Lower Makefield, which was one of the hardest hit in Bucks last week. The township been treating its 140 miles worth of roadways with brine since Tuesday and spent the last 10 days stocking up on more than 1,000 tons of salt, said township manager Terry Fedorchak.

"All of Lower Makefield is quite storm fatigued," added Fedorchak, whose township saw 11,000 of its 13,000 residents lose power last week. "Essentially everybody has just had it with this weather. This could go down as one of our most exhausting winters. You're always looking over your shoulder, looking for another storm, which may be worse than the last one."
