The sleet caused more wrecks all over Green Country and there were many abandoned cars on highways. Drivers say the roads have gotten a lot better in the past few hours, but earlier today it was a different story. There were multiple wrecks on Friday.

A semi rolled over in Henryetta and there was another crash near Muskogee.

"On my way from Owasso to 91st, I saw at least 5 maybe 10 cars off in the median," said Paul Nosack. "And there last night it sleeted so the bridges are frozen."

Paul Nosack took his daughter to the airport early Friday and said it was scary drive. He said he even took a tumble.

"I actually fell already this morning on the ice, look at that!" said Nosack. "Yeah, right there-- my shoulder, my hip, my underwear's still wet."

But once the snow stopped, the roads cleared up a bit.

"I woke up early," said Ethan Erway. "The first thing I did was open up the blinds and see if it actually happened."

Ethan Erway was out near 15th and Lewis to grab a cup of coffee. He said he didn't have an issue.

"I am headed to Doubleshot grabbing some coffee and meeting some friends," Erway. "The roads are fine. It did not get cold enough for it to stay cold so nothing's sticking."

One thing everyone could agree on, is that they're ready for spring.

"I'm a disc golf fan, and this weather is not much fun to play in," he said. "I'm excited to get back in the parks and play some disc golf."

Police say they still saw a lot of drivers speeding today and want to urge people to slow down - snow or not.
