The King County Roads Services Division is reporting that periodic snow squalls combined with falling temperatures are bringing out county road crews this evening, especially in the higher plateau areas of the county. With temperatures projected to continue to drop overnight, motorists all across the county should be prepared for slick winter driving as they head out for the morning commute.

While there are no weather-related road closures being reported at this time, the Road Services Division reports snow falling in several areas, especially in east and north King County. A snow advisory issued by the National Weather Service for the east Puget Sound lowlands is in effect until early tomorrow morning and will keep crews on the road throughout the night.

Given the potential for hazardous driving conditions, motorists should closely monitor weather reports and use extra caution when traveling tomorrow.

This alert will be updated as conditions change.
