Plow drivers…Start. Your. Engines! Recently during the calm before the storm, our maintenance techs/winter heroes visited the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe to challenge our unique snowplow obstacle training course.

Snow is falling pretty hard on US 2 Stevens Pass with some big snowflakes coming down. Here's one of our plows working westbound (look closely and you can see the little green laser light it uses to help guide its way). Traction tires are currently advised. You can check our passes page for conditions. Please be cautious, follow traction requirements, take it slow, give plows plenty of room and be prepared for any possible delays or closures. https://www.wsdot.com/traffic/passes/ | WSDOT

What's really interesting about this video is if you look closely, you can see the laser light on the road in front of the plow. Our drivers use this to know where their wing plow will be going. Be sure to give our crews plenty of room as they work to keep the highways clear. | WSDOT | Facebook
