Special Weather Statement
Special Weather Statement issued February 17 at 3:22PM EST by NWS Northern Indiana
Recent snowfall along with gusty winds has led to drifting snow across the region. Very cold temperatures will allow any snow that drifts onto roadways to quickly freeze into black ice in some areas. This will especially affect north-south oriented roadways that are downwind of large open fields. Motorists should drive with additional caution in these areas. In addition, the gusty winds and temperatures falling back into the single digits will bring winds chills of 5 to 10 below zero by Tuesday morning.
