National Weather Service (NWS) meteorologists have issued winter storm warnings and winter weather advisories for 13 states as of Thursday morning as winter storms unleash impacts across the Northern Plains, Midwest, and Northeast.

Public Works officials remind that once the snow begins to fall, it's advised drivers stay off the roads if they can and if you have to drive, be sure to give plow truck drivers plenty of space on the road.

A Dallas County jury decided a Missouri trucking company and one of its drivers were liable for a deadly crash on Interstate 35 during the 2021 winter storm that killed a 49-year-old man.
