Special Weather Statement issued February 5 at 7:05PM EST by NWS Wilmington NC

Effective: Thu February 5, 2026, 7:05 PM
Expires: Fri February 6, 2026, 9:00 AM

Standing water from the recent rainfall and any leftover melting snow will result in patchy black ice along or across area roadways and thoroughfares as temperatures drop to and below 32 later this evening, and into the 20s overnight. Icy spots could form on paved surfaces such as bridges and overpasses, primary and especially less traveled secondary roads, parking lots, sidewalks and driveways. Black ice is difficult to see and distinguish from dry surfaces. The deceptive nature of black ice can catch you unaware while you are driving or walking, causing you to lose control of your motor vehicle or for one to slip and fall.

If you plan to drive or walk, remain alert for those slick spots. Slow your driving speed and use care when walking on sidewalks, driveways or across parking lots. Slips and falls constitute a leading cause of injuries during the winter weather season.

Special Weather Statement issued February 6 at 7:00AM EST by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC

Patchy dense fog is causing visibility less than 1/2 mile this morning in parts of Chester and York Counties in South Carolina, and Union County North Carolina. As temperatures are below freezing, the fog may deposit a thin layer of ice on surfaces, particularly elevated surfaces such as bridges, overpasses and decks. Drive with caution in areas of dense fog, slowing down and leaving extra space between vehicles due to the low visibility, but also being aware that icy road surfaces may be slippery.
