Some Freezing Fog Again This Morning; Nice Warm-Up Later Today
FREEZING FOG AGAIN: Again this morning “freezing fog” has formed over parts of North/Central Alabama… this is simply fog that forms with surface temperatures below freezing. It can lead to rime ice collecting on exposed surfaces, and can lead to slick spots on bridges and overpasses. A freezing fog advisory is in effect for areas along and north of I-59; temperatures will be above freezing by 8:30-9:00.
