With snow in the forecast, office manager Ashley Pettit-Godbey said Sherco Group of Sheridan, Indiana rolled the dice and sent plows down south ahead of the storm.

Since snowfall is so rare in the South, many of these states aren't equipped with plows or salt. That's where an Indiana company comes in.

Sherco Group, a snow removal company from Indiana, has sent 14 snow plow trucks to New Orleans to help clear the snow, with additional trucks on the way, to assist in the city's historical record breaking snowfall.

The City of New Orleans hired 14 snow plows from an Indiana company in emergency procurement, city Homeland Security Director Collin Arnold said during Tuesday's historic snowfall.

Jett is currently in New Orleans and said the snowplows from Indiana have already cleared snow at the airport, as well as bridges and high traffic areas. They also helped clear paths for hospitals and emergency responders. “Today we’ve been asked to plow the Causeway Bridge, which is the largest bridge in America at 26 miles,” Jett said.

Collin Arnold, the city’s Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness director, urged residents to stay home and off the roads after a historic winter storm on Tuesday dumped half a foot or more of snow around New Orleans, blanketing roads and forcing mass closures of businesses, schools and government buildings.
