Winter storm warning in effect from midnight tonight to 6 pm cst Friday,
The NWS in mobile has issued a winter storm warning, which is in effect from
midnight tonight to 6 pm cst friday.
Precipitation will begin to spread into southeast Mississippi and southwest
Alabama this afternoon and evening. Some sleet will mix with the rain this
afternoon, but no accumulations are expected. As the precipitation increases
in intensity, a mixture of rain, sleet, and snow is likely generally west of
interstate 65 by mid evening, with precipitation becoming all snow after
midnight roughly north of a wiggins, atmore, to andalusia line. Colder air
will continue to filter into the area during the day Friday as surface low
pressure tracks eastward across the central gulf of mexico. The wet snow
line will move progressively southward toward the coast on Friday.
Precipitation will quickly taper off by Friday evening.
Significant total snow accumulations are expected near and north of
interstate 10. Snowfall accumulations of 3 to 5 inches are expected over the
interior sections of southeast Mississippi, and southwest and south central
Alabama. Total snowfall accumulations of 1 to 3 inches are expected further
south along the interstate 10 corridor. Locally higher accumulations are
possible in any heavier snow bands that materialize. Further south toward
the immediate coast, snowfall totals are expected to be an inch or less.
The snow will be wet and heavy in nature which could result in some downed
tree limbs and power lines.
Precautionary/preparedness actions,
A winter storm warning means significant amounts of snow, sleet, and ice are
expected or occurring. This will make travel very hazardous or impossible.
