Morgan County, IN – A Travel Advisory has been issued across Morgan County as snow and icy conditions create slippery roads Monday evening, according to the Morgan County Emergency Management Agency (EMA). Officials are urging residents to use caution while traveling and allow extra time for commutes.
According to the Morgan County EMA, the county is now under an Advisory Level — the lowest of Indiana’s three travel status levels. This means routine travel is permitted, but drivers are advised to exercise caution due to potentially hazardous conditions, including snow accumulation and ice patches on rural and secondary roads.
Authorities noted that road crews are working to treat major routes, but conditions may vary widely across the county, especially in shaded and elevated areas. The Sheriff’s Office also reminded drivers to reduce speed, keep extra distance between vehicles, and remain alert for black ice overnight.
Residents are encouraged to monitor local weather updates and check the Indiana Department of Homeland Security’s county travel status map for real-time advisories.
