SUMMARY: Road conditions in south Mississippi remain hazardous due to icy weather. Meteorologist Aaron Colby reports that many bridges are closed, and roads are covered with up to half an inch of ice, making travel extremely dangerous. While some vehicles are attempting to navigate the area, they are moving very slowly, often under 20 mph. Visibility of ice on roads and the need for extreme caution at intersections are emphasized. Residents are urged to avoid travel if possible and, if necessary, to proceed with extreme caution to prevent accidents. The icy conditions are expected to persist throughout the morning.

Snow-packed roads across South Mississippi will be icy and dangerous through Wednesday morning.
