Congressman Rob Bresnahan Jr. issued several public updates on social media regarding a winter storm affecting his district in early December 2025. Through a series of posts, Bresnahan informed constituents about hazardous weather conditions and changes to office operations.

On December 1, 2025, Bresnahan warned residents about the incoming storm: “A strong winter storm is expected to impact our region starting Monday night into Tuesday. Snow, sleet, and freezing rain may make roads dangerous, especially during the commute. Please use caution, avoid unnecessary travel, and allow extra time if you must drive. Stay safe https://t.co/he7Q3YAa3E”

The following day, December 2, he announced adjustments to office hours due to the weather: “Due to the inclement weather, our offices will be closed until 12:00 PM today. If you need assistance please call, our phone lines remain open and staff are available to help.”

Later that afternoon on December 2, Bresnahan provided an update specific to district offices: “Due to inclement weather our Scranton and Forty Fort offices are open, all other district offices are closed. If you need assistance please call, our phone lines remain open and staff are available to help.”

Winter storms can create significant disruptions for communities in Pennsylvania’s northeast region where Congressman Bresnahan serves. These events often lead to hazardous driving conditions and temporary closures of public services as local governments prioritize safety for residents and employees.
