As winter weather persists, authorities are advising drivers to exercise heightened vigilance due to the risks associated with refreezing and the formation of black ice. When temperatures drop overnight, the snow that has melted during the day can freeze again, leading to dangerously slick road conditions. This is particularly true on bridges, which are often more susceptible to these hazards.
Officials are strongly encouraging residents to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. For those who must venture out, it is crucial to drive at reduced speeds and maintain a safe distance for braking. Additionally, staying informed about current road conditions is essential for safety during this challenging weather.
