Saturday Caltrans maintenance crews where preparing by spreading de-icing fluid (brine) along Interstate 15 in the Cajon Pass and on Highway 138. They put down the fluid on all traffic lanes both directions from the top of the Cajon Pass Ranchero Road down to Highway 138. Then on Hwy 138 to Beekley Rd in Phelan.
The de-icing fluid is to prevent ice from forming on the freeway. Yes Black Ice.
The latest Weather updates they are forecasting is to get ice/snow showers in the Cajon Pass Sunday into Tuesday. Snow level will drop to about 4,000 feet at times.
Just Remember to Slow Down and use caution when driving in the Cajon Pass, the freeways, and highways. Also reminder have your headlight on in the rain and fog so people can see you.
