Zooming out
The region saw freezing temperatures along with sleet and snow over the weekend that has lingered on roadways, according to the National Weather Service.
Though temperatures rose above freezing Tuesday afternoon, which led to some melting, temperature will drop again below freezing and refreeze what melted during the day, according to the NWS. Some ice could linger, though, on backroads, which may not see improvement until Wednesday into Thursday.
Freezing fog is expected for portions of DFW Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, per the NWS. Residents are encouraged to use low-beam headlights when driving, to slow down and leave distance between other vehicles, and to allot extra drive time.
