...Slick Spots Possible this Morning, especially on Bridges and

Overpasses and the Plateau Counties... 



Subfreezing temperatures have spread across much of the area this

morning. This will allow the snow and icy covered roadways across

mainly the Plateau Counties and lingering moisture on area 

roadways to refreeze. These slick spots and patchy black ice may 

result in hazardous driving conditions through the morning hours.



Motorists should exercise caution with traveling this morning and

be prepared for isolated slick spots, especially across the 

Plateau Counties. Slow down and give yourself extra time to reach 

your destination. Be especially alert when driving across bridges 

and overpasses. Temperatures will climb above freezing by mid to 

late morning under mostly sunny sky.
