CEMA Alert: Melted snow/ice may refreeze tonight and Thurs night. Roads will be slippery, and falling ice from bridges is possible. Avoid travel!

[Chatham EMA @ChathamEMA]

It is not safe to drive. Do not travel.
If you MUST travel. Leave more space between your car and one in front of you. Instead of the usual 3 to 4 seconds, keep at least 8-10 seconds of space. Extra room helps you react if the car in front skids or stops suddenly.
