Snow Alerts

City of Tea snow alert information can be found on the following news stations - KELO, KSFY & KDLT.

To receive text messages when a snow alert is issued, text 'TEA' to (605) 610-1383.

Snow Alert - Typically declared when snow accumulates on streets of 2 or more inches.

When a snow alert is issued, all streets are declared emergency snow routes and will be plowed immediately. ALL vehicles, trailers, etc. need to be removed from ALL streets immediately and should not be placed back onto the street until it has been plowed from curb to curb. Please note - depending on the snowfall, the wind, and the piling of the snow, some streets may be plowed multiple times during a snow alert.

To find more information regarding a towed vehicle or a ticket, please contact the Tea Police Department non-emergency phone at (605) 498-5577.

Plowing of streets can occur without a snow alert in effect. In this instance, any vehicles on the street will be plowed around. To ensure your vehicle is not plowed in, it is recommended to move your vehicle off the street during all snowfalls.

Damaged Mail Boxes

It is the City of Tea policy that if the plow hits a mailbox creating damage, we will fix it. If the snow coming off of the plow hits the mailbox and creates damage, it is the homeowner's responsibility to fix the mailbox. Very rarely does a plow hit a mailbox, however, the plows are aware of the ones that they do hit. We will contact the homeowner and fix the mailbox in a timely matter.
