We have been flirting with Spring for a few weeks, but no mistaking it’s Winter this week. Very cold temperatures will return for a few days, and even some potential for freezing rain in the northern ArkLaTex late Tuesday into early Wednesday.

The National Weather Service forecasts that snow could begin falling in the morning before changing over to rain as the temperature climbs into the mid 30s in the afternoon. Forecasters expect an accumulation of about an inch of snow before it becomes a slushy mess.

The National Weather Service is warning that some icy travel could be possible in parts of north and north-central Alabama on Tuesday night through early Thursday as cold temperatures take hold across the state.
