Several traffic alerts have been put into place Tuesday as the biggest storm to affect major areas across Utah this season moved through.
Live video below shows current conditions on roads across Utah:
An alert was issued for the following counties on Tuesday morning:
- Davis
- Salt Lake
- Utah
- Weber
For the most part, roadways dealt with wet and slushy conditions, although anyone on the roads was urged to slow down and use caution.
As of 9:30 a.m., the Utah Highway Patrol had reported over 50 crashes across the entire state.
The warmer temperatures felt in northern Utah over the last few days have helped keep driving conditions from being their worst. According to the UDOT Traffic Operations Center, higher ground temperatures and pre-treatment by plow crews have helped keep snow from sticking.
UDOT says the eastern part of Davis County could see moderate to heavy snow showers that will affect commuters, while the southern part of the Salt Lake area will mainly deal with wet roads.
The Traction Law is in effect for SR-190 and SR-210 which lead up to Big and Little Cottonwood canyons.
Both Big and Little Cottonwood canyons are expected to receive up to 10 inches of snow today.
A Traction Law previously in place on both directions of Parleys Canyon has been lifted but could be enacted again at any moment.
