...DANGEROUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS PERSIST ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH DUE
TO ICE, FREEZING FOG AND SNOW...
...SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES AND POWER OUTAGES INCREASE COLD
WEATHER RISKS...
Impacts from recent winter weather and freezing fog will creating
hazardous conditions across the majoriy of the Midsouth tonight.
HAZARDOUS ROADWAYS AND BLACK ICE:
Roads across the region remain covered in snow, sleet, and solid
ice. Travel on secondary roads is virtually impossible in many
locations.
Even where main thoroughfares have been treated, motorists should
exercise extreme caution. Any slush or partial melting that
occurred during the day will rapidly refreeze as temperatures
drop below freezing at night. This will result in the formation
of widespread "black ice" -a transparent coating of ice that is
nearly invisible to drivers but extremely slippery.
PLEASE AVOID ALL NON-ESSENTIAL TRAVEL. If you must drive, keep a
flashlight, food, and water in your vehicle in case of an
emergency.
RECOMMENDED SAFETY ACTIONS:
HEAT SAFETY: If your power is out, NEVER use gas grills, charcoal
grills, or camping stoves indoors. These produce deadly carbon
monoxide gas which you cannot smell or see. Generators should be
operated outdoors only, at least 20 feet away from windows and
doors.
CONSERVE HEAT: Keep doors and windows closed. Close curtains and
blinds to trap heat inside. Stuff towels or rags in cracks under
doors. Close off unused rooms to avoid wasting heat.
LAYER CLOTHING: Wear loose-fitting, lightweight, warm clothing in
several layers rather than a single heavy layer. Wear a hat and
mittens to prevent body heat loss.
CHECK YOUR PIPES: In homes without heat, open cabinet doors
beneath kitchen and bathroom sinks to allow warmer air to
circulate around pipes. Allow faucets to drip to prevent freezing.
LOOK OUT FOR OTHERS: Check on elderly neighbors, friends, and
family to ensure they are safe and warm, especially if they live
alone or have lost power.
