Snow Causes Slippery Conditions Statewide

A light snow began falling across most of Connecticut on Thursday morning and it made for slick driving in places.

State Police responded to several accidents on highways, including a crash that closed all eastbound lanes of I-84 near exits 40 and 41 in West Hartford. No one was seriously injured, but the crash caused heavy delays on the highway for about an hour Thursday morning.

State Police are asking drivers to stay off the roads until the highways can be cleaned up.
