There’s a very good chance we’ll have freezing rain in many parts of the state tonight. Check your local forecasts at weather.gov and consider downloading the WSDOT App, especially if you need to travel anywhere tonight or even tomorrow morning.

Following cold temperatures overnight, please drive cautiously this morning as roads may be icy.

Pierce County crews continue to patrol our main roads and apply de-icing product and plow snow as needed.

An application of anti-icing product was made to our main roads prior to yesterday’s evening commute.

⚠ Safety reminders:
• Drive cautiously, take your time, and leave plenty of space between vehicles.
• Use extra caution on hills, bridges, curves, and shaded areas.
• Give road crews and other responders room to work.
• Please do not drive around road closure barricades or near downed utility lines.
