LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- As a storm system swept through Southern California and left roads slick and dangerous, the California Highway Patrol said 365 accidents were reported during a four-hour period Thursday morning.

The slew of accidents happened between 5 a.m. and 9 a.m., according to the CHP. On Wednesday, when conditions were still dry, the CHP said only 93 accidents were reported during the same time frame.
