Nashville, TN (WOKI) Officials with DoorDash announce they are suspending operations across parts of Tennessee, including Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville, due to snow showers and icy roadways.

DoorDash says it has activated its Severe Weather Protocol out of precaution as severe winter storms deliver potentially hazardous “blizzard conditions,” including heavy snow and strong winds.

DoorDash will suspend operations as of 11:45 p.m. CT Monday, Jan. 15 and will resume at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 16, but that depends on “evolving weather conditions,” said the company in a media release Monday afternoon.

“This is a potentially dangerous storm so we’re activating our Severe Weather Protocol to help keep our community in Tennessee safe,” said DoorDash spokesperson Julian Crowley. “We want to thank the affected Dashers, merchants and customers for their understanding during these incredibly difficult weather conditions and look forward to resuming operations when it is safe to do so.”

DoorDash will continue to closely monitor the conditions and keep in contact with Dashers.
