It took Gayle Gross 45 minutes to drive from Harmony to the Walmart in Cranberry.
"Snow-covered, ice in some areas and just slushy. And people were driving cautiously," Gross said.
Some parts of Butler County saw as much as four inches of snow.
The snow started falling around 6 a.m. and coated everything quickly.
PennDOT was busy even after the snow stopped. Residents have also been dealing with the cleanup in Irwin.
Business was impacted, too, at the Norwin Barber Shop, where there were a lot of empty chairs Wednesday morning.
"Yes, the weather has affected us. There's usually a lot of people here, getting their hair cut, and cancellation after cancellation after cancellation," said Sherry DiCristofaro, the owner of Norwin Barber Shop.
Washington County
Washington County was the first to see flakes Wednesday morning, and the first to see the winter weather turn over to rain.
Severe Weather Center 11 Meteorologist Danielle Dozier was there as road crews worked to keep up with the changing conditions.
