This application is directed to monitoring environmental conditions (e.g., weather and road conditions) associated with a vehicle to facilitate autonomous vehicle control or planning. A computer system is associated with a fixed installation having one or first more sensors. The computer system obtains, via the plurality of sensors, weather information and road surface information for a segment of a road. The computer system generates a road and weather condition estimation based on the weather information and the road surface information. The computer system transmits the road and weather condition estimation to one or more first vehicles in a vicinity of the fixed installation such that the road and weather condition estimation is configured to be used by the one or more first vehicles to at least partially autonomously drive in a first trajectory in accordance with the road and weather condition estimation.
