At least 20 weather-related crashes occurred in Salt Lake County on Interstate 15 and Interstate 80 alone. While there were no serious injuries, multiple crashes resulted in minor injuries and lane closures. The spike in traffic hazards is due to a Winter Weather Advisory in place for the area.
At 9 a.m. on Sunday, there were at least 20 weather-related crashes in Salt Lake County on just Interstate 15 and Interstate 80 alone. While Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Chris Bishop said none of these crashes involved serious injuries, there were multiple that resulted in minor injuries and lane closures. This spike in traffic hazards comes during a Winter Weather Advisory in place for much of the Salt Lake Valley.
The advisory, to be lifted at midnight Monday, was issued by the National Weather Service due to falling snow, possible thunderstorms, and stints of graupel along Interstate 80 and Interstate 15. Winter driving conditions will remain probable throughout the forecasted period. Drivers are expected to experience weather-related hazards through Sunday afternoon. "Slow down, give yourself plenty of time and space," Sgt. Bishop advised motorists
