According to local law enforcement agencies, drivers on local roads were for the most part successful in navigating any post-storm road conditions.
A dispatcher at the Alabama State Troopers post in Jacksonville said this morning that no major accidents had occurred in the area, but a small number of drivers have been involved in minor accidents such as running off the road.
Most local schools delayed opening by at least two hours to avoid forcing students and staff having to travel in dangerous conditions.
The Alabama Department of Transportation has issued several advisories for roads in the region:
Cherokee County
Alabama 68 - Possible icy patches, especially the area between Cedar Bluff and the Alabama-Georgia state line
Etowah County
U.S. 411 - Possibility of icy patches, especially between mile markers 213 and 220.
