Howe Police released these photos of an accident on southbound US 75 that happened around 11 a.m. in Van Alstyne.  It’s a reminder that the roads are still bad.

Kendall Nelms of Howe has been named Miss Lake Worth 2015.  Full story in Monday’s Howe Enterprise.

Howe Police Sgt Michael Hill says that US 75 is a solid sheet of ice.  He says that citizens should stay off the roads if at all possible for the time being. (March 5, 8:15 a.m.)
