Looking Ahead to Wednesday

Wintry Precipitation

Wednesday morning, a wintry mix could impact parts of the Highway 278 corridor. This includes a portion of Lamar County and a tiny section of Fayette County. Other areas could see a cold rain.

James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist, said, “Precipitation over the northern quarter of the state will be a "wintry mix" of some light snow, sleet, and freezing rain, generally north of U.S. 278 (north of a line from Hamilton to Cullman to Gadsden). “

Hard Freeze Outlook

We anticipate a hard freeze impacting West and Central Alabama on Wednesday and Thursday nights. This brings the risk of bursting exposed and unprotected pipes and hypothermia. Be sure to plan accordingly with safety precautions.

The National Weather Service in Birmingham said “There is a medium to high chance of hard freeze conditions Wednesday and Thursdaynights with it feeling as much as 10 degrees colder due to a northerly breeze.”

Thursday Outlook

“Temperatures will drop into the teens over North Alabama Thursday and Friday morning, and a freeze is likely down to the Gulf Coast both mornings,” said Spann.

The Townsquare Media Weather Center will continue to monitor this system because changing weather conditions could impact the forecast.
