Thunderbolt 12 gives an update on road conditions across Long Island

LIThunderbolt228noon_2023-02-28-12-24-17

Well, we are on 1 35 the Seafood Oyster Bay Expressway. We're headed south and I want to give you a look at the roads as we have been doing all throughout the day. As you can see, wow, We barely have anything on the ground except for a little bit of rain and some slush some water. The snow though has kind of disappeared when it comes to our main roadways, which is certainly a good thing. But where we have been seeing it, where there has been a concern is of course for people who haven't cleared up their cars completely. So it's still a great reason to make sure you're reducing your speed. We've had a little bit of kick back onto our front windshield, but luckily we've been keeping our speed a little bit lower to deal with situations like that and of course we still have some rain coming down here and certainly in different parts of Long Island as well. Now, a lot of people we were out speaking to on Long Island today said this was not too bad for a first snowfall, First significant snowfall, I should say. And the big question we've been asking is, well, what do you think this means for the rest of our winner? Here's what some people had to say. I'm predicting no snow, hoping lee, but if it does come, hey, listen, we have a little bit of everything. So I mean, you know, a little variety is not too bad, but at this time a little bit of summer would be nice. I definitely think we're gonna see more snow because we didn't get a lot. So I definitely think we should be prepared. Absolutely. What you can do to be prepared right now is in case any of this ice is over. Just again, take it slow back to the studio.
