ABC 33/40 Forecast
Forecaster: James Spann
WINTER STORM WARNING: A powerful winter storm will
produce a variety of weather problems for Alabama today. A large mass of
rain will cover most of the state this morning, with potential for some
freezing rain, sleet, and snow over the far north and northeast part of
the state. Colder air will be pulled into Alabama from the east, and
the rain will change to freezing rain and snow. The rain/snow line will
move southwest, and should reach the Birmingham metro at some point this
afternoon.
The heaviest accumulation of ice and snow today
should be north of a line from Hamilton to Jasper to Birmingham to
Sylacauga to Lafayette, where a winter storm warning remains in effect.
Greatest snow should come over Northeast Alabama, where some places
could see an additional 4 to 6 inches. Birmingham is right on the
dividing line between rain and snow; the northeast suburbs could see one
to two inches of snow, while communities just south and west of the
city will see a cold, rainy day.
