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.

About

Cliffs of the Neuse State Park offers a year-round family campground situated in a peaceful wooded area near the park office. The campground features 35 sites accommodating both RV and tent camping, with 12 sites equipped with full hookups including 30- and 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. The remaining 23 sites are primitive but have access to potable water spigots throughout the campground. The park sits along 90-foot bluffs overlooking the Neuse River, where layers of sand, clay, seashells, shale, and gravel create a colorful spectrum on the cliff face. Campers can explore hiking trails through longleaf pine restoration areas, fish in quiet creek spots, and enjoy swimming during warmer months. The campground provides modern bathhouses with showers, restrooms, and a dump station for RV campers. Located in Wayne County approximately 15 miles southeast of Goldsboro, the park offers a serene escape with diverse plant and animal life. Spanish moss drapes from cypress and oak trees along the river, while wildlife including opossums, raccoons, foxes, and squirrels are commonly observed throughout the campground area.
