.PATCHY AND VERY LIGHT WINTRY PRECIPITATION POSSIBLE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS... ...DANGEROUS ROAD CONDITIONS FROM ICE WILL CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING... PATCHY AND LIGHT POCKETS OF FREEZING RAIN AND DRIZZLE ARE POSSIBLE WITH A FEW LIGHT FLURRIES AND LIGHT SLEET...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COASTAL AREAS THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING. NO ADDITIONAL SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED FROM THIS PRECIPITATION. REGARDLESS... THE ICE FROM YESTERDAY STILL COVERS MOST ROADWAYS ACROSS THE REGION. IN SOME AREAS THE ACCUMULATED ICE IS ONE INCH OR MORE THICK. MANY WALKWAYS WILL REMAIN COVERED IN ICE AS WELL. NOT TRAVELING IS THE SAFEST OPTION. IF YOU MUST VENTURE OUT... STEER...BRAKE AND ACCELERATE GENTLY TO AVOID LOSING TRACTION ON ICY ROADS. LEAVE PLENTY OF DISTANCE BETWEEN VEHICLES TO PREVENT CHAIN REACTION ACCIDENTS. TEMPERATURES WILL DROP INTO THE MID TO UPPER 20S AND RE-FREEZING WILL OCCUR TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. MORE SUBSTANTIAL WARMING ON FRIDAY WILL ALLOW BETTER MELTING AND IMPROVED ROADWAYS INTO FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
