The cold core upper low is over Central Mississippi this hour…
Temps at 500 mb (about 18,000 feet off the ground) are down to -27 degrees (C), or -16.6 degrees (F) at the center of the upper low… dynamic cooling will bring some of that downward in coming hours.
Getting a handful of reports of light sleet and snow mixed with the rain over Northwest Alabama… we will be watching trends and observations closely in coming hours as the ULL moves northeast. Temperatures are expected to remain above freezing and no travel issues are expected anywhere in Alabama this afternoon. Scroll down for details, but the greatest chance of snow accumulation remains over Northwest Alabama tonight. And, even there, most roads will remain just wet and slushy due to the warm ground.
