Much of the remaining bit of ice and slush from yesterday has turned in to a slick sheet of ice and could make for some slick driving.

This December storm dropped up to two feet in spots south of us like Baltimore and D.C. In our area, the snowfall winner was Quarryville, Lancaster County, accumulating 20 inches. Delta and Hanover in York County was not far behind, tipping the ruler with 19 inches.

Of course, all of the snow made for some slick driving conditions. Cars slipping and sliding their way to their destinations. Many people deciding just to stay home and take it easy. Unfortunately, today, it's back to work and back to the roads. But the need to be careful still exists. Several drivers telling me this morning, things are a little treacherous, even 2 days later.

"It's cold. Little wets spots here and there, a little slippery but not much. Not too bad, the roads are pretty clean," said York County driver Paul Legere.

"Plan extra time. Go slow and don't assume the roads are as good as you think they are, there could be black ice. I'm just going to take my time," said driver Michelle Mtimet.

"I am going to take it easy. Just remember safe following distance because you have a lot further to stop if you lock the brakes up," said driver Lanny Stoner.

For the most part, this scene is only along the back roads. Most of the main roads we have come across have been clear of snow. All of the interstates are moving all just fine.

Roads weren't the only things affected by the storm over the weekend. Airlines across the northeast cancelled hundreds of flights. We checked in at Harrisburg International Airport, they have one cancellation to Dulles and a couple of other delays.

As for Amtrak, they say, there could be some delays because of the storm. The best advice, check with your carrier.
