Area drivers haven't adjusted to winter driving.The Clark County Sheriff?s Department responded to 34 accidents and slide-ins Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
Officials say drivers just need to slow down. If you have four-wheel drive, don?t expect that will protect you on slick roads.
Our listening area was right on the fringe of [url=http://www.crh.noaa.gov/news/display_cmsstory.php?wfo=arx&storyid=75912&source=0]a pretty good-sized storm [/url]that dropped about 3-6 inches of new snow from southeast Minnesota, all the way to U.P.
Points southeast of Neillsville received significantly less snow than points west and northeast.
The [url=http://www.511wi.gov/Web/]WisDOT's road condition report[/url] lists several major roads as snow covered or having slippery stretches.
