...SLICK ROADS OVERNIGHT FROM DRIZZLE AND FREEZING DRIZZLE...

PATCHY FREEZING DRIZZLE AND EVEN A BIT OF LIGHT FREEZING RAIN WILL
CONTINUE FOR A FEW HOURS THIS EVENING IN EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA AS
WELL AS WEST CENTRAL AND NORTHWEST MINNESOTA. THE PRECIPITATION IS
EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT AND NOT LAST VERY LONG AS DRIER AIR COMES
DOWN FROM THE NORTHWEST. HOWEVER...THE DRIER AIR IS ALSO COLDER
AND TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN FALLING BELOW FREEZING IN NORTHEASTERN
NORTH DAKOTA AND NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA. THE COLDER TEMPERATURES
WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD SOUTH THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT...AND WILL BE
WELL BELOW THE FREEZING MARK BY EARLY MORNING. PATCHY FREEZING
DRIZZLE IS ALREADY CAUSING UNTREATED SURFACES TO BECOME SLIPPERY.
EVEN AT LOCATIONS THAT SEE DRIZZLE STOP BEFORE TEMPERATURES
DROP...THERE WILL BE ENOUGH MOISTURE ON THE ROADS TO CREATE PATCHY
SLICK SPOTS. MOTORISTS SHOULD USE CAUTION OVERNIGHT.
