ROADS AND BRIDGES

Out of an abundance of caution, the Escambia County (FL) Road Department will sand roads and bridges from Molino Road north to the Alabama state line**.**

According to the National Weather Service in Mobile, black ice is not expected.

“We are anticipating the dry northwesterly winds in the wake of the front to really aid in drying out the roads this evening. We do not expect black ice later tonight – the roads will be dry by then,” the forecaster wrote.
