Leesburg, Ala. – Alabama students have only just begun to return back to class after the winter holiday break and now school systems are having to decide whether to delay or cancel due to the threat of winter storms.

North Alabama could see 4 to 6 inches of snow, with 8 inches not out of the question in isolated areas, according to the weather service.
