Just took wife in an errand. Will not be doing that again until it gets better. Icy roads is an understatement. That F250 don’t like ice, sliding just trying to go straight, coasting and we were sliding back and forth. Sirens buzzing thru town as I’m typing this
Colbert Co just posted impassable road advisory except for emergency vehicles.

Any reports on how the road conditions will be from Montgomery to Atlanta in the morning? I’m coming up from Florida but can go down I-10 to Jacksonville, Fl and head North. I’m going to SE North Carolina. . That is going to depend on what time you're leaving and how you're hitting Montgomery. Montgomery, we're going to be down to 23 tonight, so it will be rough until about 7-8, I don't think Atlanta is supposed to even get below freezing.

Just made it to work In Huntsville from Cullman. It’s just wet now but looks like I might be sleeping at work tonight. No wrecks.

This is a different one for sure. I normally get colder and will get a little snow on and off here on east side of Burleson Mtn. Not today though. Just rain. The ice that was on the trees from yesterday is melting. The line is close to here but so far nothing to speak of of. Well, the ridge is a big Ol block of ice now.

Made it bade from Huntsville. Tthey had crews salting the bridges and overpasses from Vinemont north. I didn’t experience Ice on 65 but the bridges over creeks on 565 were a little icy and there were a few people who lost control. I didn’t see any major accident though.

Just drove from Google, in Bridgeport, to Scottsboro and back to get some clothes and overnight supplies because they are having essential staffing only. I'll be locked in until Wed. sometime.....the roads were barely even wet in most of the areas between here and there. I'm hoping when we wake up and look outside tomorrow they decide to undo the call for essential staffing only.

It really didn’t unfold like they said it would from Decatur to the East. They weren't far off though. I few degrees or raining being a little sooner/later would've made the difference.
