Blackwood Traffic and Road Conditions

This weekend, Southern California is in for a challenging time with up to 6 inches of rain expected in some areas. Commuters on I-5, US-101, and I-405 should prepare for heavy rainfall leading to potential flash flooding and debris flows, especially in Santa Barbara, Ventura, and Los Angeles counties. If you have plans along the Pacific Coast Highway, stay informed and drive cautiously. High elevation areas like the Sierra Nevada will see snow, making CA-120 and CA-168 tricky with snow accumulations over a foot. Travelers in the southern Plains, particularly along I-35 and I-40 in Texas and Oklahoma, should be ready for above-normal warmth. This weekend's record-breaking temperatures could make road surfaces slick, so ensure your vehicle is prepared for the heat. Following today's cold front, expect the high winds to ease by this afternoon. Those driving on I-90 and I-25 across the northern Rockies and High Plains should remain cautious of any remaining wind impacts. As the weekend progresses, the Northeast will see a mix of rain and potential wintry conditions by Sunday. Roads like I-87 and I-90 may experience wet to snowy conditions, so plan for possible delays. The Mid-Atlantic areas including I-95 will remain warm but prepare for showers as the cold front arrives late Sunday. Northwestern routes such as I-5 and US-2 should expect lingering rains, gradually tapering off through the weekend. Stay vigilant for wet roads and potential delays.
