Public Works crews are working through the night to treat roads, but officials warn that slushy conditions from recent precipitation are likely to refreeze, creating dangerous driving conditions during the morning commute.
Motorists are advised to exercise caution, particularly on untreated roadways and bridges. Officials are urging residents to avoid unnecessary travel where possible to reduce risks of accidents.
