I have issued a state of emergency for 25 counties. We are anticipating unusually cold temperatures in Alabama this week, so I am urging everyone to be prepared, take caution traveling and stay weather aware. #alwx #alpolitics SOE: governor.alabama.gov/newsroom/2024/…

[5:15 am] After a brief lull in precipitation overnight, our next round of snow/freezing rain is moving north and east across MS. It is expected to move into northern AL later this morning. Hazardous travel and dangerously low temperatures are expected today #HUNwx (1/2)

Wintry weather is a good reminder to make sure you have an emergency car kit. Put these items on your list and stay safe!

[5PM] A Wind Chill Advisory and Wind Chill Warning have been issued beginning at midnight tonight through 6 AM Tuesday for wind chill temperatures as low as 5 to 15 degrees below zero 🥶 Be sure to check on elderly family/neighbors & wear lightweight, warm layers when outdoors🧥

[6:16 AM] Dangerously cold temperatures will persist through much of the week, but the coldest will be between now and tomorrow morning. Please bundle up if headed outdoors and take steps to protect people, pets, plants, and pipes! #HUNwx

🚨A Wind Chill Warning & Wind Chill Advisory is in effect until 9 AM Wed for wind chills as low as 5 to 15 below zero. For more cold safety information, visit weather.gov/safety/cold #HUNwx

Brrrrrr it's cold outside! Make sure your pets stay warm: - Bring them indoors. - If you have a dog, wipe their paws after walks. - Bundle them up to keep them warm. #WinterReady

[2:05 PM]: Dangerous cold air mass will push into the region on Friday and combined with breezy northerly winds will create dangerously low wind chill values below zero both Friday night and Saturday night! Remember the 4 P’s: People, Pets, Pipes and Plants. #HUNwx

♨️ Using a space heater? Please remember these safety tips! 🔥 Home fires occur more in winter than any other time of year. 🐱 Always supervise children & pets when heaters are in use! #WinterSafety

[9:00 AM]: A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for all of S. Mid TN and much of N. AL! 🧊 Light freezing rain accumulations up to 0.05" 🚨 Continued hazardous travel due to lingering snow/ice accumulations on roads 🚘 Travel is strongly discouraged. Have an emergency kit!

10:50AM Radar Update - rain has started moving in to NW AL. Although some temperatures are reading over 32 degrees, this is expected to stick to any ice currently on the ground, exacerbating any ongoing travel impacts. Please heed any road closures; they are for your safety!

[1210PM] Some light snow showers may continue across parts of the TN Valley for a few more hrs. Otherwise, look for temps falling later this afternoon as another surge of bitter arctic air arrives. Be very careful if out this afternoon & stay warm! #HUNwx

[2:00 PM]: A warming trend will continue throughout the week, with highs rising back into the 60s Wednesday and Thursday. This will come at the cost of increasing rain/storm chances beginning Tuesday, with flooding becoming an increasing concern by Wednesday into Thursday. #HUNwx

Big results don’t require big changes. Say you want to meditate to help you sleep better. Start with a habit of one deep breath when you lie down. Soon it will become automatic and you'll be ready to add another small habit on your way a full bedtime meditation. #HealthyHabits

[6:15AM] A Flash Flood Watch will be in effect this afternoon for the potential for 2-3" of rain with locally higher amounts to impact the TN Valley through Thursday evening 💧Never drive through floodwaters or around barricades ⚠️Have multiple ways to get warnings #HUNwx

During a flood, water levels and the rate at which the water is flowing can quickly change. Get to higher ground. Do not drive or walk into water. It only takes 6 inches of water to knock you off your feet. weather.gov/safety/flood #WeatherReady

[5:30 AM] Wet weekend ahead with the potential for strong to severe storms on Saturday. Rain chances won't pick up until later this evening into the overnight hours so make sure to enjoy the dry conditions while they last! #HUNwx
