Suncoast Parkway Northbound Closure Due to Weather

0:00It's April 7th. This is Tampa Bay News today, powered by AI. Northbound lanes on the Sun Coast Parkway in Pasco County got shut down this Tuesday afternoon. Crews are out there clearing power lines that fell across the road after some rough weather hit. Florida Highway Patrol confirmed it around 4.20pm, right south of County Line Road. Traffic's getting rerouted at State Road 52 to keep things moving. That means drivers heading north got to take the detour, which could add some time to your trip if you're in the area. Folks on the road are dealing with backups and local commuters might feel the pinch during rush hour. No injuries reported so far, but it's messing with the usual flow up that stretch. Officials expect the closure to wrap up in 30 to 60 minutes, but they're keeping an eye on it. Power companies on scene 2, making sure everything's safe before reopening. Stay sharp out there and check the latest from FHP if you're traveling due Pasco weather like this can shift quick.
