Paris, Tenn.–A heavy snowfall has blanketed the local area, shutting down many businesses. Closings of schools, governmental offices and college campuses–which were already closed today for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday– have been announced for Tuesday. All of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day programs in our area–in Paris, Union City, McKenzie and Martin–have been cancelled and most have been rescheduled. Frigid temperatures have created below zero wind chills which are expected to continue through most of this week. In photo, city of Paris Public Works crews clear off snow on the Ogburn St. hill. Henry County Helping Hand Radio Auction was closed today and will remain closed Tuesday. (City of Paris photo).
