WATERTOWN — Icy situations produced vacation complicated during the night Wednesday.
A number of auto crashes had been documented, such as a achievable rollover soon just after 3 p.m. on Route 178. The Smithville Hearth Department responded.
The crash was at first described as a rollover, but Smithville Fire Chief Andrew Weldon was unable to affirm that the vehicle rolled above, as he said he was not at the scene. Chief Weldon verified that the car struck a guard rail.
Route 178 was briefly shut down while officials cleared the scene.
According to Main Weldon, there did not look to be any accidents as the driver of the auto was out and walking all-around.
Smithville Hearth Department and South Jefferson Rescue Squad both equally responded to the scene of the crash.
The National Weather Provider in Buffalo issued a winter season weather conditions advisory for Oswego, Jefferson and Lewis counties, particularly listing the cities of Oswego, Watertown and Lowville.
In accordance to the Countrywide Weather Company, ice accumulations of up to a handful of hundredths of an inch are possible alongside with snow accumulations of up to 2 inches.
Main Weldon claimed that motorists need to have to take excess safeguards.
“Just since the roads appear harmless, does not indicate they are,” Chief Weldon mentioned.
