After 3 inches of snow fell in certain parts of the region, Delaware asked drivers to cautiously commute as road cleanup efforts continue Saturday.
The Delaware Department of Transportation offers interactive maps for Delawareans to track snowfall accumulations, snowplows across the state and more.
Road advisories
DelDOT also offered tips for drivers to safely travel as snowplows continue on the roads, such as:
- Drive aware

- Plan your route and give yourself extra travel time
And their most important one, which is: Don’t crowd the plow.
