Special Weather Statement issued November 11 at 2:00AM EST by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC

Although snow showers will taper off around daybreak, slippery road conditions are expected in the mountains this morning, especially across areas that received accumulating snowfall in the last 24 hours and with below freezing temperatures in place. Temperatures will remain below freezing across the mountains through the morning hours, rising above freezing this afternoon across the lower elevations. Temperatures across the higher elevations will likely remain near or below freezing through tonight, keeping slippery road conditions around. With temperatures expected to fall back below freezing across the lower elevations this evening into Wednesday morning, black ice could become a concern for the evening commute as well as the Wednesday morning commute depending on how much snow melts today. For the morning and evening commute, be prepared for slippery roads. Slow down and allow for plenty of space between yourself and other vehicles if snow covered or icy roads are encountered.

Special Weather Statement issued November 10 at 2:34PM EST by NWS Blacksburg VA

Snow showers are possible tonight through Tuesday morning. Affected locations may see any bridges, walkways, and perhaps a few roads become icy once precipitation begins to fall and temperatures drop overnight. The first snow of the season is usually the most impactful for drivers. Slick spots will likely develop on roadways, especially bridges and overpasses. If you are traveling and encounter adverse winter driving conditions, reduce speed and make sure headlights are on.
