Still trying to try to figure out if I can get to Covington by 2
Causeway is still close

We've just gotten north of freezing in Gretna. Even first thing this morning, the surface streets (back streets, though) in my neighborhood were largely ice-free. The worst you'd see was some slushy areas, but no "sheets of glass" that I could find while walking about.

One of the cars in our driveway was covered in crusty frost at around 7:30 a.m., but was completely cleared by the morning sun by 9:00 a.m. (and probably earlier). I know cars in the sun thaw differently than concrete in the sun ... but still.

Only caveat -- since the Causeway is over water, do we know whether there's a lot of standing snow still on it? Trying to find very recent aerial views of the NOLA area highways (preferably since sunrise this a.m.).
