(quoted from post at 03:13:08 01/29/14) Showcrop I am from New England also.what you describe is mighty slippery but not black ice. Black ice is as others have said water freezing on pavement forming clear ice. It looks like a wet road.
(quoted from post at 14:30:39 01/29/14) I will consider myself corrected. I am in Nh also,Hillsborough Cty. where are you if you don't mind saying.
(quoted from post at 15:15:47 01/29/14) Ice that does not reflect/looks like dry pavement.

This is what I've always thought of as black ice.
an ice covered road is just that, 'ice covered' or 'icy roads'
black ice you can't see at all.
asphalt is like sandpaper, grit up.
when ice fills all the crevices, it's slick and you can't tell it's there.
Don't even need a weather event, frigid wind blowing across the road can do it.
(an asphalt parking lot is a good place to see it undisturbed)
