A shallow arctic airmass moved into the region a few days earlier resulting in near to slightly below freezing temperatures across much of northern Louisiana.  A warm...moist layer of air overran the shallower, colder air at the surface with patchy light drizzle and light rain falling across the region.  The drizzle and light rain became freezing drizzle and light freezing rain across much of northern Louisiana during the predawn hours of December 23rd.  The ice froze to elevated bridges and overpasses which in turn, resulted in several vehicle accidents.
