MONTGOMERY COUNTY - Drivers should stay home as roads throughout Montgomery County remain coating in ice and snow Monday, emergency management officials for the county north of Houston told FOX 26.

"I actually stayed up last night worrying about my pipes, so I saw [the snow] when it fell this morning," said Glen, a Montgomery resident who spent the morning walking his dog through snowy roads. "I have the day off anyways."
