| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A winter storm brought a mixture of freezing rain, sleet, and snow to the northern two-thirds of Alabama. Precipitation began as freezing rain and sleet but quickly changed to snow. The precipitation coated roads and caused serious travel problems across the northern sections of thestate that lasted into Monday morning (the 8th). Some higher elevations of the northeast corner of Alabama had travel problems into Tuesday. Amounts were generally light with the highest snowfall reported at Huntsville International Airport with 2 inches. Most other locations across North Alabama reported one-quarter of an inch to an inch and a half. On Sunday the 7th, one fatality occurred in an automobile/train collision in Calhoun County that was attributed to icy roads. The teenage driver of the car was not wearing a seat belt and was thrown from the vehicle. |
