A wintry mix of snow, sleet, freezing rain, and a cold rain 
continue to impact portions of the I-40/I-85 corridor this 
morning. This activity is expected to continue through the mid 
afternoon, producing pockets of visibility restrictions and a few 
slick spots on area roadways. Less than a half inch of additional
snowfall accumulations and a glaze of ice will be possible. 

Conditions should slowly improve this afternoon and evening as 
the precipitation shifts southeast, exiting The Triad by lunchtime
and the Triangle by 3pm.

Please use extra caution if traveling. Slow down, use low beam 
headlights, and allow for extra time to get to your destination.
Wet spots on area roadways could turn to pockets of black ice,
especially on elevated surfaces such as bridges and overpasses.
