With Omaha in a Winter Weather Advisory, road conditions have been poor because of light snow and wind. 

Despite only two inches of snow expected to accumulate, drivers experienced low visibility because of snow blowing and wind gusts up to 50 MPH.

A crash on Eastbound I-80 near 72nd Street affected the morning commute, with police shutting down I-80 at the 680 split a little after 6:30. The area remained closed until after 7:30.
