Statewide - DelDOT Advises of Icy Conditions Sunday Night
The National Weather Service is forecasting temperatures to be in the teens statewide tonight combined with 30-40 mph wind gusts which will result in very cold wind chills in the single digits.
With today's snowfall, the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) is warning of widespread icy conditions for road surfaces that do not dry during the daytime. While DelDOT snowplow crews continue to clear and salt roads today, rock salt becomes less effective below 20 degrees, and roads and bridges will become icy as temperatures continue to fall.
Drivers who need to be out tonight should give themselves extra time to reach their destination, reduce travel speed, and be alert for icy conditions.
The gusty winds combined with heavy snow on trees also makes the likelihood of downed trees and wires more likely and drivers should be prepared for potential hazards and blowing snow.
DelDOT has more than 300 traffic cameras across that are available to see real-time road conditions and can be viewed on the DelDOT app and the DelDOT website.
Downed trees, wires, and other road issues can be reported to the Transportation Management Center by calling #77.
