Mid-winter thaw brings threat of black ice and fog.

 

A mid-winter warm-up this week will bring a new set of hazards. The freeze-thaw cycle increases the chance of black ice, fog and potholes, mostly in the morning hours. Highs will rise from just above freezing Tuesday to possibly the 50s on Thursday. We’ll watch for a potential snow-maker later this week before another crash in temperatures this weekend.  

Tonight: Partly cloudy with morning fog developing, low 22. 

Watch for fog and black ice in the morning

Tuesday: Partly cloudy, high of 34.

Wednesday: Fog and drizzle, high of 45.

Thursday: Rain and fog, highs near 50.

A quick thaw will melt a lot but not all of our snow pack.
