At 10:26 p.m. on Friday, the National Weather Service released a forecast for Northern Wayne and Southern Wayne, Bradford, Susquehanna, Wyoming, Lackawanna, Luzerne, and Pike counties, predicting fog and black ice through midnight on Saturday.
Patchy black ice may form when temperatures drop below freezing, particularly on exposed surfaces. Roads, parking lots, and walkways will become slick as a result.
