Utah Commuters Warned of Hazardous Ice Conditions as Cold Front Triggers Flash Freeze

Takeaways:

• A strong cold front is expected to impact Tuesday morning's commute in Salt Lake City, with a flash freeze warning in effect.

• John Gleason from the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is preparing for the storm, which poses challenges due to rain turning into snow.

• The usual brine solution cannot be used to prevent snow from sticking to roads because of the rain, so road crews will use salt instead.

• Drivers, including Rebecca Baldi, are advised to drive much slower to ensure safety on the icy roads.

• The recent warm weather gave a taste of spring, but the incoming storm serves as a reminder that winter conditions still persist.
