Snow is really coming down in downtown Birmingham as evidenced by this shot from the Skycam atop the Daniel Building.

The capture was about 9:45 when the radar looked like this as a heavy band passed through the city.

The end is in sight as the back edge of the snow is approaching Tuscaloosa, Jasper and Cullman.

Snow should end in the Birmingham area by 11 or 12.

But snow, including some heavy snow will continue over East Alabama for a few more hours. There has even been some thundersnow reported in Russell and Randolph counties just after 9 a.m.
