Normal: This refers to the roadway surface when there has been no precipitation or conditions that would have an adverse effect on pavement friction.
Normal
Wet: This condition is the result of precipitation that is not freezing. Reduced traction or visibility may be encountered.
Wet
Partially Covered: This is the result of precipitation, including rain, snow, or a mixture of the two, causing roadways to become somewhat covered. The driver may experience periods when the roadway markings may be obscured.
Partially Covered
Mostly Covered: This could be the result of continued precipitation over a period of time. This represents an advanced deterioration of the surface. Roadway markings may become difficult to see, and the surface may be slick, snow packed, and have rutted conditions. The roadway may become difficult to navigate.
Mostly Covered
Completely Covered: The roadway is completely covered with precipitation. Accumulation is to the point that the roadway markings are completely obscured making it difficult to differentiate between the roadway and it's surroundings. These conditions make travel very difficult. This is a hazardous environment.
Completely Covered
Travel Not Advised: The roadway has deteriorated to the point it is very dangerous to travel. Emergency vehicles and snow removal equipment may be called off of the roadway due to the conditions. Some weather conditions can be severe enough that roadway treatments, such as salt or sand, will not work. In the event of an emergency, it may be impossible to get emergency vehicles to a scene.
Travel Not Advised
Road Closed: By driving on a road that has been designated as closed you are entering at your own risk. Emergency vehicles and snow removal equipment will most likely not be available to assist you. You are not authorized to travel on a closed roadway.
