more slippery, in a way (5)
I believe the answer is:
icier
'more slippery in a way' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for icier that I've seen before include "with increased chance of freezing" , "More glacial" , "Colder even than 31 Across" , "More slippery" , "More treacherous" .)
