Ice Storm

Some areas to our north received up to an inch of ice overnight. There are more than 10,000 people without power in White, Carroll, and Benton counties. In the Lafayette area, drivers had to slowly cross the US 231 bridge over the Wabash River. High water signs are posted on the bridge. The passing lane had standing water and large chunks of ice.

Christmas break started early for many children. The Tippecanoe School Corporation and other districts are closed today. Stay tuned for more updates on road conditions and power outages. Drive careful!
