LIVE REPORT: Cold creating dangerous road conditions By WLOX Staff | February 15, 2021 at 3:59 PM CST - Updated February 15 at 7:44 PM
SOUTH MISSISSIPPI (WLOX) - Once the rain moved out of South Mississippi Monday, Mississippi Department of Transportation crews and county road departments got to work spreading salt, brine and slag on coast roadways. That combination will lower the freezing point of water and increase traction, but crews are already seeing roads refreezing in some areas.
Pascagoula Police already announced the 14th Street Overpass would be closed Monday night, and other bridges could follow.
