While the freezing drizzle is light, it’s been enough to create an icy glaze on elevated roadways. Crashes have been reported, especially on the city’s north side and in northern Bexar County.
UPDATE 6:20AM
Multiple crashes across San Antonio are being reported. This includes along 410 on the city’s east side, where we are receiving reports of the highway being shut down. Another crash was noted near I-35 and Southcross. It’s best to avoid travel this morning, but if you have to be on the roads, avoid bridges and overpasses.
