Winter Weather Driving

A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for the area until Tuesday at 6 AM. It's cold out there, and some areas are experiencing freezing fog, freezing drizzle, and some light snow. A few slick roadways have already been reported, so use extra caution when driving. Temps will remain below freezing tonight, so watch out for slick spots on the morning commute. Here's a few tips:

• Give yourself extra time to reach your destination
• Slow down and leave pleny of room to stop - usually 3 times more space than normal
• Brake gently to avoid skidding
• Turn your lights on
• Be careful on bridges and overpasses
• Even if you have 4 wheel drive or front wheel drive vehicle, don't assume your vehicle can handle all conditions
