A current or forecasted weather condition at an intersection or roadway may be identified using cameras and/or other weather sensors connected with traffic infrastructure installed at the intersection or roadway. Adverse traffic events typically associated with weather conditions of the same type as the identified weather condition may be determined, for example based on historical records of correlations between weather and traffic. The traffic infrastructure may adjust an option, for example by adjusting traffic signal timings, to mitigate the adverse traffic event in response to identifying the weather condition.
