Sam Penrod Reporting People are heading home on a second night of winter conditions on Utah's roadways.

The snow is flying again, so far it is not sticking on the road, but in some places it's not helping

We've been checking with the Utah Highway Patrol and troopers have had a busy afternoon.

They've responded to several fender-bender type wrecks on the freeway, some the result of wet roads and ice forming in a few areas.

It seems it always takes a storm or two for drivers to remember the hazards of driving in the winter months.

Troopers say the best way to avoid trouble is leave early, keep your speed down in bad conditions and don't follow too close.

Also, tire stores say a lot of people are showing up wanting snow tires.
