Transportation officials in Virginia are paying close attention to the weather tonight. By 4 a.m., VDOT says there will be more than 4,000 pieces of equipment out on area highways — salt trucks and plows.
There is at least four inches of snow in the forecast Tuesday, and VDOT officials say that after two inches of snow has fallen residents can begin using the state’s plow map to see the status of snow plowing in their neighborhood.
Update
The delays stemmed from a crash in Prince William County, said Stafford sheriff’s spokesman Bill Kennedy.
