...SLICK AND HAZARDOUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
TODAY...

YESTERDAYS ICE AND SNOW MAY HAVE ENDED...BUT FALLING TEMPERATURES
HAVE DONE LITTLE TO HELP IMPROVE CONDITIONS ON THE ROADWAYS.
SECONDARY...UNTREATED ROADS...BRIDGES...OVERPASSES...AND SIDEWALKS
ARE STILL TREACHEROUS ACROSS THE AREA. EVEN THOSE ROADS WHICH HAVE
BEEN TREATED WILL STILL DEVELOP SLICK SPOTS WITH TEMPERATURES THIS
LOW. AS A RESULT...PLEASE TAKE EXTREME CAUTION IF NEEDING TO
TRAVEL...AND ALLOW EXTRA TIME TO REACH YOUR DESTINATION.

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO RISE INTO THE MID 30S AND LOW 40S ACROSS
EASTERN KENTUCKY TODAY. THIS...IN ADDITION TO MOSTLY SUNNY
SKIES...WILL HELP TO MELT SOME OF THE ICE AND SNOW OFF OF THE ROADS.
HOWEVER...PLEASE CONTINUE TO TAKE CAUTION...AS SLICK SPOTS COULD
STILL BE POSSIBLE EVEN IF THE PAVEMENT ONLY LOOKS WET.
