We travel that route in November and have done it once after Christmas as well. The biggest issue seems to be frost on the road earlier in the morning, it's interesting to see the tracks of cars that head towards the center median or the shoulder, no accidents but these are a dead give away about the road conditions.
As a Canadian, we face these conditions regularly and they aren't of concern. Best bet is to wait until the sun and temps melt the ice or snow, in November one year we had to leave later in Monahans Texas after a snowfall.
