BLYTHEVILLE, Ark. (KAIT) - Since last week, Blytheville has been getting hit hard with wintry weather.
According to Blytheville Police Chief Ross Thompson, Blytheville Public Works has been working day and night to clear the main streets that run through town.
“They were out last night in the middle of the storm,” Chief Thompson said. “I saw them again this morning.”
No matter the overtime put into plowing snow off the roads, the chief says that the roads have iced over from freezing temperatures, causing people to “lose control” of their cars.
