...FLASH FREEZING AND BLACK ICE CONDITIONS POSSIBLE...

Drier, windier, and colder air temperatures are beginning to
spill into the western portions of the area and will work eastward
through the evening. Low temperatures in the upper teens and
lower 20s could cause wet roads to begin to freeze up, especially
on untreated surfaces creating very slick conditions.

Black ice can be very difficult to notice on roads and not
realized until brakes are applied. This can lead to loss of
vehicle control and traffic accidents. It is best to drive like
you are on ice as you that may very well be the case. So slow
down and give yourself plenty of extra time when commuting. Gusty
winds, gusts up to 30 mph overnight will cause blowing and
drifting of recent snowfall, and can introduce additional slippery
conditions in spots.
