Special Weather Statement issued January 23 at 7:47PM EST by NWS Wilmington NC

Refreezing of melted ice and snow will create patchy black ice on
area roads tonight and early Friday morning. Icy spots could form
on paved surfaces such as bridges and overpasses, primary and
secondary roads, parking lots, sidewalks and driveways.

Black ice is difficult to see and distinguish from dry surfaces.
The deceptive nature of black ice can catch you unaware while you
are driving or walking, causing you to lose control of your motor
vehicle or to slip and fall.
