Reports are emerging Friday of drivers in Texas trapped in their cars for more than ten hours in freezing temperatures following accidents caused by icy road conditions along Interstate-10 outside of San Antonio.
The massive delays – which are ongoing, according to live traffic cameras in the area – began after accidents occurred late Thursday and early Friday morning in Kerrville, Fox29 reports.
“Travel is still dangerous. Interstate 10 has seen some very bad situations and should be avoided,” the Kerr County Sheriff’s Office posted on Facebook. “An 18-wheeler is jackknifed near mile marker 504 westbound, blocking travel. We are working with TXDOT and other law enforcement partners to manage the scene.”

The sheriff’s office reported that the current temperature at their headquarters is 21 degrees.
“Temperatures will be back into the teens tonight. No additional moisture is expected. Roads are still glazed. Like a doughnut,” it added.
Traffic is seen at a standstill along Interstate-10 in Kerrville, northwest of San Antonio, Texas, on Friday.
