Winter Storm Update & Community Preparations

January 22, 2026

As we look ahead to the upcoming winter storm forecast for this weekend, we want to keep you informed about preparations underway across the community. Current projections suggest snowfall totals could range widely, and while final forecasts will become clearer in the next couple of days, our teams are preparing for a significant snow event to ensure safety and continuity of essential operations.

WHAT TO EXPECT & HOW WE’RE PREPARING

• Snow removal equipment is being staged, plows are being installed on vehicles, and salt supplies are being prepared for spreading at Freeman, Fitness Center, Racquet Sports Center, and Sea Colony Way from Annapolis House through Island House.

• Primary plowing will begin once snowfall reaches approximately 3 inches, with initial focus on Westway Dr., Freeman Fitness Center, Racquet Sports Center, and Sea Colony Way from Annapolis House through Island House.

• Community access gates will be placed in an open position during the storm and will remain open until conditions improve and roadways are cleared.

• For safety, roaming security patrols will be suspended once snowfall reaches approximately 2 inches, with security staff stationed at Edgewater House during that time
