MONROE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) Rain and snow made commuters' overnight and morning commutes messy.

Driving in Barrett Township early Monday, dash camera footage shows heavy snow packed down on Route 390.

"The road is crazy. Fog, lots of fog. The visibility is very poor." said Baltimore Anderson, Philadelphia.

Areas like Barrett and Pocono Township saw more than three inches. That mixed with some rain led to a heavy cleanup for plow truck drivers.

From Pocono Township Facebook page 

We’ve heard the buzz and want to set the record straight—there is NOT a circle or roundabout proposed for the intersection of Route 611 & 715. Instead, the state plans to create a solution that goes through the mountain, improving traffic flow for our community.

In other updates, the current "Welcome to Pocono Township" sign will be coming down. New, updated signs will soon be installed in Bartonsville and Scotrun, bringing a fresh look to our township’s entrances!
