Slick Monday around the area

Slick Monday around the area...

The ice has sure caused a lot of craziness today around the county. Emergency personnel have been extra busy with wrecks, falls and slide-offs. 

Bates County Sheriff Chad Anderson sent out an advisory early this morning to stay home if all possible. He stated that we currently have deputies who are also stuck in their vehicles and we are unable to get to them. We advise not to travel if you don't have to.

Below is some photos that we accumulated from this morning. If you must travel slow down and provide yourself extra time to arrive at your destination.
