Crews Treat Over Half of Highways Ahead of Storm

By Angela Hatton

Paducah, KY – Crews have pre-treated between 50 and 60 percent of the region's roadways ahead of tonight's snow storm. Kentucky Transportation Cabinet spokesman Keith Todd says warmer than expected pavement temperatures will allow crews to pre-treat into the evening hours. Todd says motorists should be alert for slow moving trucks on the highways until 7 tonight. He says cold temperatures will reduce the pre-treating's effectiveness. Snow is set to hit the area after midnight.
