Dress in layers including a hat, face mask, and gloves if you must go outside. To prevent water pipes from freezing, wrap or drain or allow them to drip slowly. Make frequent checks on older family, friends, and neighbors. Ensure portable heaters are used correctly. Do not use generators or grills inside.
Lingering moisture and runoff from this weekend's wintry precipitation will create patchy black ice on area roads tonight and Tuesday morning as temperatures remain well below freezing. Be prepared for slick spots, especially on bridges and overpasses and any untreated roadways. Use extra caution when walking on sidewalks, driveways, and in parking lots. Temperatures will likely remain below freezing thru late Tuesday morning.
