Parking lots, streets and sidewalks are extremely slick across Northeast Ohio due to freezing rain turning into black ice.
News 5 reporter Mike Holden was able to slide a hockey puck and frisbee across a parking lot because of the black ice.
“It’s an ice rink out here!”

Parking lots, streets and sidewalks are extremely slick. So much so—you can slide a hockey puck across them. ODOT & city crews throwing down salt. Be careful! Watch @WEWS all morning. pic.twitter.com/CMjp1LVX0R
Holden reports salt trucks have been passing through about every 20 minutes in Lakewood to keep the roads safe.
Give yourself some time for your commute this morning.
