Earlier this week, the coldest temperatures this winter swooped across Baltimore rupturing several aging water mains throughout the city, the Baltimore Sun reports. Area crews worked on approximately 10 major pipe breaks within the area on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, the National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory for more snow across the region from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. and a wind advisory for sub-zero temperatures.

The freezing temperatures and loose water have caused some cars to stick to the road.
