"It is dangerous," Mikaela Wray of Easton said. "Everyone should be careful."


Wray was just one of many residents stopped Saturday in Lower Mount Bethel Township, Northampton County, near Uhler and Richmond roads as crews worked on cleaning up accidents nearby.


"Everyone here is getting stuck," Wray said. "I can imagine it is like this everywhere else."


Currently there is no word on the details of the road closure, but multiple vehicles were having trouble finding traction on slippery roads in that area on Saturday.


"PennDot got here and salted the roads and helped," Wray said. "We're all safe."

Many in Allentown say they are not looking forward to the winter season ahead, especially with last winter's cold spell fresh in their minds.


"Just be careful," Matthew Ricci of Allentown said. "That's the best advice I can give out to everybody, just be careful."


And that is good advice for anyone traveling this weekend. Stay safe, leave yourself some extra time to get where you are going and of course buckle up.
