Authorities in the two neighboring counties in Alabama are cautioning no travel Thursday morning.  Alabama State officials declared a civil emergency on Wednesday evening after deeming Alabama state and county roads impassable.  

DeKalb County, Alabama Sheriff Jimmy Harris issued a curfew that ends at 6 AM, but is still cautioning travelers to stay off of the state and county roads until later this morning.  Cherokee County, Alabama officials said that roads are snow covered and will remain that way until mid-morning.

Any travel to Alabama should be done this afternoon, when temperatures are expected to get above freezing.  There is concern about re-freezing overnight tonight and the possibility of black ice on Friday morning.
