Snow

It was a busy day for police agencies in the Top of Utah Friday, as the continuing snow storm contributed to slide-offs and other accidents.

As of 8:30 p.m., Friday, the Utah Highway Patrol had responded to eight vehicle slideoffs or crashes in Box Elder County, 42 in Weber County and 80 in Davis County.

The Davis County Sheriff’s Office handled 123 vehicle accidents and slideoffs, while the Weber County Consolidated Dispatch Center handled 161 such incidents in Weber and Morgan counties through 9:30 p.m.

KAYSVILLE — With this week’s snow across the Top of Utah, sledders who had to trek to the mountains last year are now finding sledding hills a little closer to home.

Alycia Sweeten, of Syracuse, was sledding with her kids this week on a hill near the stadium at Syracuse High School.

“It’s nice to get outside during the winter break,” she said. It’s the first year her 3-year-old has been sledding, given the lack of snow last year.

Every time she watches her five kids sled, she is amazed they still don’t have any broken bones.

Dispatchers along the Wasatch Front kept busy Wednesday as a snowstorm hit just in time for the commute.

Weber County dispatchers reported they had at least a dozen fender-benders or vehicles sliding off the road during the morning commute, with most of the accidents occurring on the auxiliary streets.

Dispatchers said there were a few more accidents as the day progressed, but no one was seriously injured.
