Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeOne to two inches of snow fell during a snowstorm that entered into northwestern Alabama before noon. It snarled traffic and icy roadways were blamed for dozens of accidents including two deaths due to cars skidding off roads and into other cars. The storm exited the eastern part of the state around 8:00 pm CST. One of the factors that caused problems was the rapid entry of Arctic air which helped to create icy conditions as the precipitation was ending especially in the area from Florence to Huntsville.
