Black ice is defined as a dangerous hazard that blends in with the dark road where it appears wet, but is a thin layer of ice that can cause cars to slide while driving.

Agency officials say they are continuing the roadway treatments and plowing statewide, with minor improvements in West and North/Central Oklahoma roadways.

ODOT says there are still various interstates and highways that can remain slick and snow-covered, including some in OKC and Tulsa.

If travel is necessary, drive with extreme caution.
