For those just waking up, a large UPS cargo plane has crashed near Birmingham-Shuttlesworth Airport. It happened around 4:45 a.m. Explosions have been reported… heard in Tarrant, East Lake, and Woodlawn. All roads around the airport are closed. Unknown injuries; 2 pilots on board, primary search has been done and so far no one found.. It is not known if the airport is allowing flights in or out at this time. Emergency crews are staging at East Lake Blvd / 19th Ave North. Reliable reports indicate the UPS plane was coming in from Louisville.
Due to work on this there will be a delay in the morning weather discussion….
