TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (WBRC) - Snow and ice remained on some Tuscaloosa-area roadways Tuesday.
That worried Tuscaloosa County EMA Director Nick Lolley. “We see snow on the ground already. The ground is frozen so if we get more rain on top of this it’s just going to get worse,” he said.
Snow fell heavily overnight into Tuesday morning. Fire Rescue Chief Randy Smith with Tuscaloosa Incident Command reported no accidents with injuries.
Smith said ALDOT and TDOT will continue sanding roadways, bridges and overpasses as long as this winter weather system persists.
