🌡️ Monitor temperatures for melting.
🔻 Take it slow.
🚘 Turn on headlights.
🚗 🚙 Create space with vehicles.
🕛 Take extra time. https://t.co/4Z8FAQjf5n

Freezing rain/drizzle sticks around this AM - conditions that can make it nearly impossible to maintain control of your vehicle. #DelayYourTrip until afternoon when roads will improve as temps climb. Don't get fooled by #blackice. Roads that look wet may be a sheet of ice. https://t.co/ZpQb1LIOoz

We start the morning with an expanded Ice Storm Warning in east/southeast counties with completely covered (pink) roads. Most of the rest of the state is partially covered (blue). Surface temps will be key to melting and safe driving today. Take it slow if you have to go! https://t.co/aNgYrEwjAk

Q: What did one Christmas tree say to the other?

And so should our vehicles. At the holidays, turning on your headlights isn’t only about seeing your way over the valley and through the woods. It's also about being seen. https://t.co/FXf1IrVtEC https://t.co/uBsy58o4FJ
