Overnight no travel advisory issued for all state highways in Southwest Minnesota
The Minnesota Department of Transportation has issued an overnight no travel advisory for all state highways in Southwest Minnesota, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Counties impacted by the no travel advisory include Chippewa, Kandiyohi, Lac qui Parle, Lincoln, Lyon, McLeod, Meeker, Murray, Redwood, Renville, Pipestone, and Yellow Medicine counties. Heavy snowfall and strong winds are creating limited visibility.

Motorists are advised to not travel in these counties throughout the rest of the day and overnight. Road conditions will be reevaluated in the morning and posted on www.511mn.org.
No Travel Advised means that the roadway has deteriorated and/or visibility has been reduced to the point that it is very dangerous to travel; there are reports of intermittent white out conditions; and some weather conditions can be severe enough that road treatments are not effective, and conditions can become life-threatening for stranded travelers.
Visit the www.511mn.org website for detailed information and updates on specific roadways. View winter road conditions from plow, weather and traffic cameras which are also part of 511.

Real-time statewide map of crashes, closures, construction, winter road conditions, traffic cameras, plow locations, weather alerts, trucker restrictions, and more. Sign up to schedule SMS/email alerts for your frequent routes and areas.
