An accident blamed on icy conditions is causing some major headaches this morning.

Hudson Valley traffic reporter, Nancy Reamy, says that the Taconic State Parkway is stopped up on the southbound side due to an accident in the right lane. Traffic is extremely slow from Pudding Street through Peekskill Hollow Road. EMS and fire trucks were on the scene due to some minor injuries.

Reamy says that icing is causing some slippery conditions throughout the Hudson Valley this morning. Motorists should use caution because of the possibility of black ice on the roadways. Other incidents on I-84 and Route 9 in Fishkill are being blamed on icy conditions.
