I hope the rain evaporates first, otherwise "black ice" w/snow coverage? Pretty bad driving. But they's gonna send the salt spreaders out. |

Like now, it's raining, it's about 35 degrees. It could start sleeting at any time, then turn to snow for awhile even. Also, because when we get these, it rains like hell then may freeze at night and black ice is a BIG problem here. |

Charlotte has arrival and departure delays because of ice/snow. |
