Crews are working to plow roads as a “snow event” was declared in Idaho Falls Sunday morning. Vehicles should be moved off all roadways to allow room for plows to clear the roads.

The Idaho State Police announced the closure of Interstate 84 between exit 222 and the Utah border on Sunday due to a blizzard warning in southern Idaho. Winter storm warnings throughout eastern Idaho are making interstate travel very dangerous. To learn about road closures check www.511.idaho.gov or call 511 from any cell phone, or call 888-432-7623.
