Road conditions across WLKY viewing area as snow continues to fall
SUMMARY: There are slowdowns and congestion in southern Indiana, particularly on I-64 near Floyd County and US 150. Heavy snow is falling in the area, with snow accumulation on grassy surfaces along I-71 near the Gene Snyder and other areas south. Drivers should be cautious of wet, potentially hazardous conditions, as untreated surfaces may be slippery. Some drivers are advised to avoid the roads today, but for those heading out, extra time is needed to clean snow off vehicles. The accumulation on side streets is minor due to fewer cars, but caution is still recommended.
