Motorists around Dallas will have to use caution over the next couple of days due to ice.
The stage is set for a bit of ice to make some surfaces slick through Tuesday around the Dallas area. A few snowflakes may also make an appearance on Tuesday.
A substantial amount of ice is not expected, which should prevent power outages from unfolding.
However, only a glaze of ice is needed for travel--for motorists and those on foot--to become treacherous.

Airline passengers may encounter delays, while schools could be forced to cancel classes.

The winter weather will depart by midweek, leading to a milder and mostly sunny Wednesday. Temperatures are expected to climb to the 50-degree mark.
Even warmer air will boost temperatures into the 60s for late week. After Tuesday night, overnight low temperatures should stay above the freezing mark.
