Watch out for black ice, snow showers possible later

Yesterday's rain mixed with last night's freezing temperatures means lots of black ice on roads and sidewalks.

The state has issued an advisory warning of black ice on roads across the state.

As the day goes on, we may see snow showers with the National Weather Service forecasting a high temperature near 32 degrees and winds from the northwest gusting as high as 28 mph.

Another advisory for tonight when we can expect the temperature to drop to about 8 degrees and, wind chills, as cold as minus 10 degrees. North winds may gust as high as 32 mph.

Expect the sun to return tomorrow, but temperatures to reach just 18 degrees during the day and wind chill values in the negative single digits with gusts as high as 30 mph.
