WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA – From the mountains to the triad, law enforcement all over the state are reporting an increase in accidents due to ice on the roads.
Schools in the western part of the state are reporting closures and delays due to travel threats.
Emergency officials are urging those who have to hit the roads today to drive slow, as black ice is often hard to spot.
Although the state isn’t expecting any more rain for the next several days, ice could stay a problem through the afternoon today, and possibly longer for shaded areas in the mountains.
It is advised that you give yourself extra time on your commute this morning.
