An apparatus includes a processor configured to be disposed with a vehicle and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores instructions to cause the processor to receive, at least two of: radar data, camera data, lidar data, or sonar data. The sensor data is associated with a predefined region of a vicinity of the vehicle while the vehicle is traveling during a first time period. At least a portion of the vehicle is positioned within the predefined region during the first time period. The method also includes detecting that no other vehicle is present within the predefined region. An environment of the vehicle during the first time period is classified as one state from a set of states that includes at least one of dry, light rain, heavy rain, light snow, or heavy snow, based on at least two of the sensor data to produce an environment classification. An operational parameter of the vehicle based on the environment classification is modified.
