DALLAS – After briefly ending the subfreezing streak, it remains bitterly cold this morning. Any lingering moisture has iced over, resulting in patches of black ice on exposed surfaces. Residents should exercise extra caution.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Roads remain slick in many areas. The safest option is to stay off the roads until more significant melting occurs this afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\" <\/p>\n

With melting adding moisture to the air and light winds on Tuesday night, there is a risk of fog as temperatures drop back below freezing. The risk is highest north and west of the Metroplex. Freezing fog is particularly dangerous, as it can create a thin layer of ice on any surface it touches. This may spread across North Texas after 2 a.m. Wednesday.<\/p>\n

If you must drive in inclement weather, allow additional time to reach your destination and share your travel plans with a friend or family member, so someone knows the route you\u2019re taking.<\/p>\n

When driving on icy roads, drive slowly\u00a0and\u00a0increase the distance\u00a0between your vehicle and others when stopping. Do not use cruise control during poor driving conditions and ensure your vehicle has a full tank of gas before you head out.<\/p>\n

Safety officials tell Texans to be aware and approach bridges and overpasses slowly as ice can\u00a0accumulate before drivers are able to see it on the roads. Drivers should also watch for downed trees and power lines. If a stoplight is out, treat the intersection as a four-way stop.<\/p>\n
