Nic: A Coupla Inches Of Snow, But … It’s Slick

Jane Q. Citizen: A couple inches of snow in February and KHQ-6 preempts the Today show and regular programing to do live reporting on road conditions. Huh?

Nic: Yes, Jane. It is only a few inches, but driving conditions are horrible. There are dozens of accidents including a jack-knifed semi near Athol. I have seen traffic running smoother with twice as much snow. It might not look like much snow, but it is slick. The icy streets combined with limited visibility and poor driving habits are a recipe for disaster. Kudos to KHQ for valuing their viewer’s safety more than their regularly scheduled programming.
