The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) and the Nevada State Police are reporting worsening weather conditions, dropping temperatures and potentially dangerous road conditions.

As such, all State executive branch offices will close, effective at 3:30 p.m. today in Carson City, Washoe County, Storey County, Lyon County, and Douglas County. This order does not apply to essential public safety or corrections personnel, nor does it apply to employees whose job duties involve administering elections and/or elections security or support.

The Governor, along with NDOT and the State Police, will continue to monitor the weather and road conditions. The safety and well-being of the State’s employees are of the utmost concern.
