No travel advisory issued for several SW Minnesota locations

(Willmar, MN) – The Minnesota Department of Transportation is advising no travel in several southwestern Minnesota counties and Highways.

Heavy snow and reduced visibility have prompted advisories for the following areas:

• Lincoln County, south of Highway 19
• Lyon County
• Murray County
• Pipestone County
• Redwood County
• Yellow Medicine County – along Highway 59 south of Clarkfield
• Yellow Medicine County – along Highway 23 south of Hanley Falls
• Yellow Medicine County – along Highway 68 east of Canby

Brown County also issued a no travel advisory earlier today.

No travel advisories mean that the roadway has deteriorated and visibility has been reduced to the point that it is very dangerous to travel.
