Officials say the blowing and drifting snow created dangerous conditions for drivers, as well as deputies responding to assist.

RCSO said if you must travel, to be prepared with a winter survival kit including water, snacks, blankets, and a cell phone charger.

"Remember to leave early to allow for delays, drive slowly, and leave plenty of room for stopping," RCSO said in a news release. "If you are in a crash stay in your vehicle if it is safe. As we start to di gout please take breaks while clearing snow and check on your elderly neighbors."
