FAQs
Q) How often is the map updated?
A) The traffic flow is updated at loadtime and upon movement outside the initial map view, or upon refresh of the page. Any incident markers are checked for updates approximately every 5-10 minutes, but you need to reload the page to load any new updates; the data provided may still be the same status/view as before. Information shown is as only reliable as how it is reported to us.
Q) The roads are backed up or closed, but the map does not show the reason why, what's up with that?A) Municipal traffic monitors or GPS trackers may not be available, could be offline, or reports and alerts are not syndicated to media outside of the area to use on the map. This is especially true for rural areas. You are encouraged to leave a road conditions report to help others.
Q) I see traffic alerts in the box below for the state, but they aren't related to the area I'm in? A) We attempt to display alerts as specific to the area as possible, however in some cases the data we receive will only allow us to provide it by county or even statewide.
Q) Are you an official source of traffic information? A) We are not an official source of traffic or real-time data. We have contracts and licenses to display certain up-to-date information that comes direct from some DOTs in various states, and the traffic flow on the maps is provided by TomTom or other map platforms. However, the data shown here should only be used for light informational and reference purposes and not to make critical decisions. Your safest option on the web is to use your official state-run traffic website, or to call the DOT traffic line for your state, local authorities, or the state's 511 number if available.

National Traffic Forecast
Heavy Rain and Thunderstorms Bring Flood Risks to Southwest and Plains 09-29 to 10-01
Updated Tue Sep 29th 2026, 2:53am PDT
Northeast Relieves While Southwest and Plains Prepare
As the Nor'easter weakens and moves away from Cape Cod, areas in the Northeast will see improving conditions by Wednesday. Commuters around Interstate 95 and Highway 6 near Cape Cod, MA, can expect fewer disruptions.Southwest and Southern Rockies Deluge
On Tuesday, heavy rains are expected due to tropical moisture from Hurricane Polo in the Southwest and Southern Rockies. Watch for potential flash floods on Interstate 40 and Route 66, impacting travel in areas like Albuquerque, NM, and Flagstaff, AZ. Remember, flooding can turn roads into rivers quite quickly, so "turn around, don't drown."Central and Southern Plains Soak
Heavy rainfall will shift into the Central Rockies, Central High Plains, and Southern Plains on Wednesday. With rain expected between 3-6 inches, prepare for possible road closures and delays on Interstate 70 and Interstate 25. Keep an eye out for flash flooding near Denver, CO, and Lubbock, TX, and avoid low-lying areas. On Wednesday evening, severe thunderstorms may develop in these areas with a chance of hail and strong winds. Travelers on Interstate 35 and Interstate 44 in Oklahoma City, OK, should stay updated.Likely Flooding in Midwest
The Midwest will experience bouts of rain through Thursday, particularly in places like Omaha, NE, and Des Moines, IA. Expect delays on Interstate 29 and Interstate 80 due to potential urban flooding. Keep a safe distance from any high water and be extra cautious at night when visibility is reduced.Southern Plains Storms Continue
By Thursday, while rain will persist, the threat of thunderstorms in the Southern Plains will lessen. However, travelers on Interstate 10 and Interstate 20 should remain vigilant, especially in Dallas, TX, where severe weather risks can still disrupt plans. Remember to check local advisories and stay informed.
