Freezing overnight temperatures created the wintery scenes around the Mid-Columbia region. One wreck on Interstate 82 south of Kennewick sent the driver, Breana A. Dates, 26, of Kennewick, to the hospital after her Ford pickup flipped about 5:30 a.m., said the Washington State Patrol.
The National Weather Service is forecasting early morning patchy freezing fog until about 10 a.m. the rest of the weekend.
