He says all roads across the area are wet at the very least, and places where temperatures are below freezing are building up layers of ice. Niewind encourages everyone traveling today to use caution.

Captain Brian Niewind says, luckily, there have been no accidents in Cass County as of the morning of December 26th, but there have been ones reported in Stutsman and Trail Counties.
