Snow, freezing rain causing problems on Metro Vancouver roads Monday

WATCH: Vancouverites have been hit with the 10th storm since December 2016. If it feels unusual, it isn't. As Robin Gill reports, this is the kind of weather our grandparents had – Mar 6, 2017

Snowfall warnings for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley have now ended but conditions on the roads are still slick in both regions.

There have been a number of incidents on the roads overnight and this morning due to the snowfall and freezing rain.

In Coquitlam, the Lougheed Highway on and off ramps are blocked due to multiple collisions and icy conditions.

On Sunday night in Delta, a car ended up in the ditch and had to be towed out.

On Highway 1 in Surrey, a car crashed into a median, causing traffic back-ups and delays.

City crews are out in the regions however, trying to clear roads of snow and slush ahead of the morning rush.
