With frigid cold temperatures and overnight freezing drizzle, slick and hazardous road conditions are reported in the Shawnee area and in much of the central Oklahoma.
According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, eastbound Interstate 40 near the Kickapoo Street exit has to be shut down about 4:30 a.m. Wednesday because of an overturned tractor-trailer rig.
Shawnee roads also are slick. Travel is discouraged, but if you must travel, slow down, give yourself enough time to get to your destination, and make sure you have supplies available such as blankets, water, and snacks in the event your vehicle becomes disabled, said Shawnee Police Department Cpl. Vivian Lozano-Stafford.
