The region continues to feel the effects of Winter Storm Izzy that rolled through the region Sunday into Monday.  Road crews are making progress but some area roads remain snow covered and motorists are advised to use caution and only travel if necessary.  Washington County 9-1-1 says there have not been any major issues resulting from the storm so far.  State Police in Washington report no problems on the Interstate highways.  Many schools and businesses are closed on Monday because of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.  The Washington School district and Canon McMillan school districts had flexible instruction days, while McGuffey went to remote learning.  West Penn Power was reporting only a handful of power outages early Monday morning.   Garbage collection in the City of Washington and Peters Township was stopped on Monday.  Tune to WJPA 95.3FM/1450AM for the very latest information.
