Special Weather Statement issued January 19 at 6:05AM EST by NWS Raleigh NC
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.

With temperatures dropping well below freezing tonight into Monday morning, black ice development is likely as wet roads freeze. Roads may therefore become slick and slippery, especially on untreated, secondary, and back roads. Slow down and use caution when driving, especially when traversing roads that have not been treated. If you are walking outside, watch your first few steps taken on stairs, sidewalks, and driveways. These surfaces could be icy and slippery, increasing your risk of a fall and injury. Road and sidewalk conditions should improve later Monday morning as temperatures warm to above freezing.
