Undated, AL – A wintry mix of light freezing rain, sleet and possibly snow is possible in parts of west and north central Alabama Friday night.
The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for areas along and north of Interstate 20. Meteorologists said could be enough frozen precipitation to accumulate and that will make travel hazardous on raised surfaces - especially bridges and overpasses. Ice also could a pose problem on trees and power lines.
Forecasters said temperatures are expected to rise above freezing by Saturday morning.
Residents are advised to stay abreast of changing weather conditions.
The winter weather advisory is in effect for 22 Alabama counties from 6 p.m. this evening to 8 a.m. tomorrow.
