OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Several inches of snow has fallen across most of eastern Nebraska, creating slick driving conditions.
The state Department of Roads was urging drivers to use extreme caution Sunday all across the eastern third of Nebraska because of slippery roads.
The snow began falling in Nebraska on Saturday and light snow continued to fall in some places Sunday as the storm moved east. Most areas will receive 2 to 4 inches of snow.
Near northwest Lincoln, officials had to close a three-mile section of Interstate 80 Sunday morning because of multiple accidents, including two semitrailer trucks that leaked fuel. No serious injuries were reported.
The interstate reopened shortly before 1 p.m.
Nearly 6 inches of snow fell in the Lincoln area.
