Freezing drizzle has covered much of Oklahoma in a light glaze of ice!

Main roads are fine, but bridges could have a few slick spots. You will need the ice scraper and it is cold outside!

Wind chills are in the teens and 20s. Highs Friday will be in the 30s and low 40s. Strong north winds will continue all day. The light rain and drizzle will start to wind down midday.

Friday afternoon rain chances will be in eastern Oklahoma.

In the Oklahoma City metro temperatures will flirt with freezing through midmorning allowing for light icing to occur. Again, most of the roads will stay wet, but be alert on bridges.

Friday night temperatures will drop into the 20s and 30s once again. Another freeze/frost is possible.

Saturday highs will rebound back in the low 50s.
