There is a lot of slushy snow on the roadways making it hard to get traction when driving Sunday morning.
Earlier snowfall was plastered onto the front of this stop sign in Somerville.. But as snow transitioned to sleet/rain, it has begun to slip… And this is quite the sight. #tnwx @FOX13Memphis @joeysulipeck pic.twitter.com/0LKcyiSCjm

Just arrived in Somerville where we’ve seen about 1.5” of snow.. But now it’s changed over to rain and roads are slushy. TDOT crews are making their rounds on main roads near the square. #tnwx @FOX13Memphis pic.twitter.com/rhPGDeCzu0

The rain/sleet mix in Somerville has transitioned back to snow/sleet, but it isn’t coming down as heavily at the moment. Roads are slick and slushy. #tnwx @FOX13Memphis pic.twitter.com/U2znOryvjR
