Jefferson county was put under its second winter storm warning Monday morning by the National Weather Service.
“The first wave of wintry weather has wrapped up,” the weather service said. “But the second, and more potent wave will move into the region early this afternoon bringing moderate to at times heavy wintry precipitation.” They said the heaviest snowfall is expected Monday afternoon and evening.
Driving conditions are said to be difficult, if not impossible, due to the ice, sleet and snow. If you must travel, the weather service recommends “keeping an extra flashlight, food and water in your vehicle in case of an emergency.”
