Road conditions remain hazardous due to ice; consider delaying non-essential travel. May remain icy through Sun/Mon.
Road conditions throughout the area remain hazardous due to ice on roads. Temperatures currently look to remain below freezing through the weekend, meaning many roads may remain icy for several days.
Road crews will continue to sand roads to provide traction but that may only help so much. Temperatures may be too cold for salt to be effective and plows cannot remove thin layers of ice.
Delaying non-essential travel is advised. If you must travel, exercise caution and patience, and stay alert.
