According to the South Dakota Department of Transportation, highways around Rapid City up towards Piedmont and then back towards Wall are slippery, and visibility is less than one-half mile due to foggy conditions.


Last night, the South Dakota Highway Patrol posted this comment on Facebook.


I-90 between Piedmont and Rapid City, Conditions have deteriorated quickly and roadways are slick. Visibility is also becoming an issue. Multiple vehicles have left the roadway and law enforcement units are active in the area. Please reduce speed and drive with due regard for other motorists.
