Isolated patchy ice on pavement possible late tonight into Wednesday morning... A strong cold front will bring frigid air into central North Carolina tonight. While most of the wet ground from recent rains will dry up as drier air sweeps in with gusty winds, any residual puddles and areas of runoff have the potential to freeze quickly late tonight into Wednesday morning as temperatures plummet below freezing. However, due to the arriving dry air, widespread icy roads or black ice is not expected. Drivers late tonight through Wednesday morning should remain alert for possible isolated icy spots or patchy black ice through mid morning Wednesday.
