It is 30F at the Cullman Airport, 36F at Tuscaloosa and 36F at the Jasper Airport.

Light to moderate precipitation continues to fall over much of Alabama along and northwest of I-59. In areas where surface temperatures are at or below freezing, a glaze of ice will quickly form. The further northwest you go, the freezing layer is deeper and the melted precip has a chance to refreeze into sleet.

Temperatures will continue to fall to near freezing across northern portions of Jefferson and Tuscaloosa County soon and to near freezing the City of Birmingham between now and 9:30.

It is advised that travel should be curtailed before temperatures reach freezing in the Winter Storm Warning and Freezing Rain Advisory areas.
