If can't make it back today because of the roads, when will I be able to make it back safely?


It depends on how much sun we get and how long the temperatures stay above freezing on Saturday. It may be possible to get to Birmingham relatively safely Saturday afternoon. I would think everything would be good by Sunday mid-day.

Seems like it will be "OK" up until around 4 no precipitation on this side of the Ham right now (I'm in Eastlake up on Ruffner Mtn about a block from Ruffner State Park

I think the North side like toward Gardendale might be dicey

Spann is adamant no one should be driving today until AT LEAST Noon today

Me and wifey are both up watching the live looks and so many people wrecked and stopped out there trying to drive

DO NOT DRIVE
