Special Weather Statement issued February 15 at 10:41PM EST by NWS Baltimore MD/Washington DC

With surface temperatures returning to around freezing and additional precipitation moving through, some slick spots are possible, particularly on any untreated surfaces. Any precipitation gradually comes to an end overnight, but areas of fog and drizzle are likely to develop in the wake. With temperatures around freezing, the threat for slick spots on area roadways could remain an issue. If traveling overnight, ensure to remain at safe speeds and leave plenty of distance from the vehicle in front of you.
