Road conditions across northern Mississippi have become hazardous due to a combination of wrecks and freezing fog, according to local authorities.
Several highways, including Interstate 55, I-22, and I-269, are closed as crews respond to numerous accidents. Officials advise motorists to avoid all travel in the area until conditions improve.
The situation is expected to worsen as freezing fog develops, reducing visibility and increasing the risk of additional accidents. Drivers are urged to stay safe and monitor updates from transportation agencies.
No injuries have been reported so far, but authorities emphasize caution given the treacherous conditions.
