Metro Detroit road conditions: Snow, subzero wind chills cause slick roads
DETROIT (FOX 2) - Areas around Detroit could see up to an inch of snow accumulation on the sidewalks. Snow squalls will be at their most likely Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
This can lead to slick conditions for drivers who are traveling on Wednesday night.
According to the Michigan Department of Transportation, major slowdowns can be seen in the northwestern part of metro Detroit going up into Flint, with US-23, I-94 and I-96 showing impact.
MDOT says there are crashes already being reported on I-94, with WB I-94 at Jackson Ave Exit being closed due to a crash near Ann Arbor.
