Description: 
Above-freezing temperatures on Sunday allowed the snow, slush, and ice to melt. While most roads were able to dry during the day thanks to the sunshine and winds, some shaded areas remained wet. Any residual moisture will freeze tonight with low temperatures in the twenties. Motorists should drive with extra caution tonight into Monday morning given the potential to encounter some slick spots. Slow down and leave plenty of room in front of you. Untreated bridges, overpasses, and sidewalks will be the most prone to black ice.
