Wake County

Special Weather Statement issued January 18 at 8:55PM EST by NWS Raleigh NC

Roads remain wet from earlier precipitation. As temperatures fall into the mid to upper 20s, patchy black ice will be possible overnight and into early Monday morning. Secondary, less traveled roads, bridges, overpasses, and sidewalks will be especially susceptible. 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.
