 This morning, road conditions were clear, making it an easy morning commute. However, as the day went on, snow started to accumulate, causing slick roadways. Officials are reminding those who have to travel to be cautious while doing so. A winter weather advisory is in effect until midnight tonight. According to the National Weather Service, periods of snow will cause travel difficulties throughout the region. Officials are warning travelers to be prepared for snow-covered roads, black ice, and limited visibility. Motorists should use caution while traveling. Try to stay below the post-a-speed limit because the slower that you drive, the more control that you're in. Be aware of bridges. Bridges are bad to fall out, freeze, fall out, which makes it a very slick surface. And if you can, try to stay on the main roads. Stay off secondary roads. I know that road upkeep priority is usually the main roads, and then secondary roads are secondary. So it's until and when they could have sawed or scraped or anything like that. Try not to slam on the brakes. Ease into them. If you slam on the brakes, you can skid and lose control of the vehicle due to the slick surface. And overall, just pay attention in this kind of weather and these kind of conditions so that way everybody gets to go home safe. Several collisions occurred throughout the day due to weather conditions. Officials say this evening and tonight should be worse. We're going to have some drastic temperature drops from what I understand. And where there's water on the road, what that temperature drop is going to cause it to freeze over and make it a very, very slick driving surface.
