It's my understanding that there's some very bad weather hitting at least the eastern side of the state... I don't know how true this is but I heard from Prestonsburg to at least the Mountain Parkway, it is nothing but solid ice... Please everyone be safe if you are out in this.

According to someone that works on the roads during the winter they have shut down US 23 from Shelbiana to Prestonburg for a couple of hours to try and salt the roads and de-ice them. There have already been at least 7 wrecks on US 23 this morning. My buddy was also on his way back to Morehead this morning and police were stopping all traffic going through Prestonburg.

 

 

Be safe everyone!!!

It's awful here in Owsley County. I haven't been out this morning, but a friend who works in Booneville said there had been around 15 accidents already. We got freezing rain this morning. One section of Rt 11 between Booneville and Oneida was closed down for a while due to several wrecks on a steep hill. And a woman's car slid into a bridge just outside of town, jumped the rail, and went into Buck Creek. She was trapped and had to be cut out of the car, but wasn't hurt too bad. It's not a good time to be on the road.:eek:

I had to stop and fish a guy out of the creek this morning. He had run off the road and turned over. Luckily he wasn't hurt too bad, just shaken up and frozen.

 

Everyone please be careful.

Was he still in the car when you "fished him out"?

It closed I 64 this morning between the Ky/WVa border to the Hal Greer exit in Huntington, WVA alot of wrecks due to ice underneath the snow. The snow has melted now.

Yep, great job road crews, top notch work. You only have a dozen or so of these type incidents a year, great anticipation and work. Ever hear of RADAR? As my brother-in-law who works for the state road dept. is sleeping in this morning, I passed 12 cars wrecked on the interstate, not the backroads, the flippin' interstate. Kudos, roadcrew!
