Special Weather Statement
Issued: 4:39 PM Dec. 14, 2025 – National Weather Service
...AREAS OF BLACK ICE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...

A combination of snowfall this morning, along with temperatures
falling into the 20s has resulted in slick roads. Untreated roads
and overpasses will be especially hazardous. Sidewalks and
parking lots will also become slick.

Slow down and use caution when driving. If you are walking
outside, watch your steps on sidewalks, driveways and parking
lots. These surfaces could be icy and slippery, increasing your
risk of a fall and injury.

This threat will likely linger through tonight as temperatures
fall into teens. Wind gusts up to 35 mph will help with some
drying during the daylight hours.
