NIGHT AND FRIDAY...

SNOWFALL ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED ACROSS OUR REGION BY WEEK`S END AS
A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DEVELOPS AND MOVES EASTWARD ACROSS THE
NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. PRECIPITATION
WILL LIKELY BEGIN AS A MIX OF LIGHT RAIN AND SLEET OVER THE INTERIOR
COUNTIES THURSDAY NIGHT...ESPECIALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY
84...AND WILL THEN CHANGE TO AND REMAIN AS SNOW THROUGH FRIDAY
AFTERNOON BEFORE ENDING FROM THE WEST.  CLOSER TO THE COAST...RAIN
WILL BEGIN FALLING THURSDAY NIGHT AND A CHANGEOVER TO SLEET AND SNOW
MIX COULD OCCUR AS EARLY AS MID MORNING FRIDAY BEFORE CHANGING TO
ALL SNOW BEFORE ENDING.

IT IS CURRENTLY BEYOND THE STATE OF THE SCIENCE TO PIN-POINT EXACT
SNOWFALL TOTALS BECAUSE IT IS TOO FAR OUT IN TIME PRIOR TO THE EVENT
AND MANY UNCERTAINTIES REMAIN.  HOWEVER...CURRENT TRENDS INDICATE
SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW COULD FALL OVER INTERIOR SOUTHWESTERN AND
SOUTH CENTRAL ALABAMA FROM THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MIDDAY FRIDAY WITH
LIGHTER AMOUNTS CLOSER TO THE COAST.  THE CONFIDENCE FOR
ACCUMULATING SNOW IN OUR AREA CONTINUES TO INCREASE...PARTICULARLY
INLAND.

IF THIS TREND CONTINUES...A WINTER STORM WATCH WILL LIKELY BE ISSUED
BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON FOLLOWED BY EITHER A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
OR A POSSIBLE WINTER STORM WARNING BY SUNRISE THURSDAY.

EVERYONE IS URGED TO STAY UP TO DATE ON THE LATEST FORECAST AND
OUTLOOKS CONCERNING THIS POTENTIAL SNOW EVENT.  ALTHOUGH
PRECIPITATION WILL BE ENDING LATER IN THE DAY FRIDAY...SUBFREEZING
LOW TEMPERATURES FRIDAY NIGHT SUGGESTS THAT LINGERING MOISTURE ON
ROADS AND OVERPASSES WILL REFREEZE...CREATING SLICK SPOTS AND
HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS.

...WINTER WEATHER POTENTIAL FOR FRIDAY...

OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS MUCH HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN REGARDS TO
THE POTENTIAL FOR WINTER WEATHER FRIDAY.  UNFORTUNATELY...DUE TO THE
LACK OF CONTINUITY IN THE FORECAST MODELS...FORECAST CONFIDENCE
REMAINS LOW.

TIMING REMAINS VERY CONSISTENT IN ALL OF THE FORECAST MODELS...AS
FRIDAY LOOKS TO BE OUR TARGET DAY.  BUT WITH THE UNCERTAINTY ON THE
TRACK OF THE SURFACE LOW...WHICH WILL DETERMINE NOT ONLY THE AMOUNT
OF MOISTURE THAT IS OFFERED UP WITH THIS SYSTEM...BUT ALSO HOW FAR
THE FREEZING LINE WILL DIG INTO THE SOUTH...IT IS STILL TOO EARLY TO
PINPOINT WHERE AND HOW MUCH SNOW WILL FALL IN CENTRAL ALABAMA.

FOR NOW...THE BEST CHANCE FOR ANY ACCUMULATION OF WINTER
PRECIPITATION REMAINS GENERALLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20...
ESPECIALLY DURING THE MORNING HOURS ON FRIDAY.

IN THE WORST CASE SCENARIO...A BAND OF HEAVY SNOW COULD SET UP ACROSS
THE STATE...DROPPING 1 TO 3 INCHES IN A FAIRLY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.
PLEASE BEGIN TO PLAN AHEAD ON HOW A COUPLE OF INCHES OF SNOW COULD
AFFECT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY...BEFORE IT ACTUALLY FALLS.

CHECK BACK WITH US FREQUENTLY FOR THIS POTENTIAL OF WINTER WEATHER ON
FRIDAY.  ON THE WEB...CHECK OUT OUR HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK AND

CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WITH THE BEST CHANCES
ON THURSDAY BEFORE DIMINISHING THURSDAY NIGHT. CURRENTLY...IT APPEARS
TEMPERATURES WILL BE VERY NEAR THE CRITICAL FREEZING MARK IN THE
LOWER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE DURING THIS PERIOD...WHICH MEANS THE

ROLLING PLAINS MAY BE MOST LIKELY TO RECEIVE ANY APPRECIABLE
MOISTURE. ALTHOUGH NOT ANTICIPATING A MAJOR WINTER STORM...THIS
