The South Dakota Highway Patrol (SDHP) reported that motorists are dealing with slippery conditions, which have caused motor vehicle crashes on area roads.
Snow fell overnight in Sioux Falls and began to melt. Unfortunately due to the low temps this is causing freezing on bridges. Please slow down and be safe on your morning commute.

The South Dakota Department of Transportation has reported on its SD511 website that the roads are slippery, with scattered slippery spots across the east and reduced visibility in the northeast.
Weather in the northeast part of the state is not ideal. Visibility is greatly reduced in spots especially west of Summit due to the blowing snow and high winds. Roads are icy and snow covered in spots. Visibility appears better in the pictures than it actually is.
Please limit travel if it is not necessary. Slow down, increase your travel distance, buckle up, pay attention to the road. Make sure not to crowd the plow!
