Special Weather Statement
There are reports of patchy black ice this morning around Central
North Carolina. Temperatures will remain below freezing through
mid-morning, keeping some slick spots around through that time.
Secondary, less traveled roads, bridges, overpasses, and sidewalks
will continue to be be especially susceptible. However, there are
reports from the Triangle Area of some slick spots on Interstates
and main roads where patches of water running across the road
from Sunday's precipitation froze overnight.
Black ice is difficult to see and distinguish from dry surfaces.
The deceptive nature of black ice can catch you unaware while you
are driving or walking, causing you to lose control of your motor
vehicle or to slip and fall.
