Icy windshields greeted many Kingfisher County residents when they were leaving for work early Thursday morning.

The Kingfisher Mesonet site showed .08 inch of moisture from overnight freezing rain.

Local Weather Observer Steve Loftis recorded .03 inch moisture at the National Weather Service station in Kingfisher.

The Mesonet rainfall site showed much of Kingfisher County on the edge of the front.

The weather map showed the ice ending about half-way between Dover and Hennessey.

A bright sun and warmer temperatures during the day quickly melted the thin ice cover Thursday although some reported experiencing slick roads.

Still, it was enough for most county schools to shutter its doors for the day. Citing the slick conditions for students and staff alike, Kingfisher, Okarche, Lomega, Dover and Cashion all called off school on Thursday.

Chisholm Trail Technology Center did the same.

Hennessey kept its school schedule as normal.

Highway Department crew members were on the job early sanding bridges and slick intersections.
