Alabama 811 | Know What's Below.

Update for Those Traveling Northward

| February 1, 2014 @ 4:33 pm

Since the morning Weather Xtreme Video, a number of winter weather watches, warnings, or advisories have sprung up across the area from San Angelo, TX, across Southeast Oklahoma, northern Arkansas, northern West Tennessee, northern Middle Tennessee, eastern Kentucky and parts of West Virginia and Virginia. A picture tells the story so much better, so see the map below.

Watch/Warning/Advisory Map

The reddish pink areas are Winter Storm Warnings, the purple areas are Winter Weather Advisories, and the bluish-green color indicates Winter Weather Watches. These cover everything from freezing rain to sleet to snow occurrences. So if you have travel plans that will take you north, northwest, or northeast from Birmingham, you’ll want to keep an eye on the developing winter weather along your route.
