The National Weather Service office in Fort Worth said it had received numerous reports of accidents on bridges, overpasses and untreated roadways early Monday. Spotty freezing drizzle had broken out during Sunday night.

MedStar emergency management services in Fort Worth reported Monday afternoon that over 100 crashes took place in the area, with 25 patients transported to area hospitals with reported injuries.

Christopher Cook, the chief of police for White Settlement, a suburb of Fort Worth, posted on Twitter that icy roads were contributing to accidents in the area. “People must slow down when approaching elevated surfaces,” Cook wrote. Further south, crews with the Texas Department of Transportation pretreated major roadways Monday morning in Austin, reminding residents to "leave plenty of room" between vehicles and work convoys.

Dallas Drivers being fools on an icy bridge...

I guess Dallas folk aren't used to those conditions. It's been a long time since we've a severe winter here in NJ and I don't miss it one bit

So here in Los Angeles county we have our first snow warning since 1989.

We are also having blizzard warnings with gusts of up to 75mph.

That shit never happens here. People here are losing their damn minds like the end of the world is coming.

Every single phone in SoCal received this weather warning, and all the news Chanel’s had an emergency broadcast.

This type of weather in most other states would barely make the news.

Yet here in CA we don’t know how to deal with any type of weather. I saw 2 overturned cars on their roofs and 2 other spin outs on the side of the freeway on my hour drive home from work today.

People here are truly stupid.
