Ice and sleet still coats North Louisiana, resulting in prolonged hazardous driving conditions and a number of road closures.

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) has provided a list of the latest road closures due to winter weather as of Sunday, Jan. 25 at around 7 a.m.

The DOTD notes that, as weather conditions change, roads can quickly become hazardous and may become impassable before barricades can be put in place.
