After a small risk of excessive rainfall on Saturday, temperatures are expected to plummet, and the National Weather Service says there is a chance of wintry precipitation, including snow, sleet, or freezing rain between Tuesday morning and Wednesday night.
It’s still unclear how models will trend in regards to snow, but the region is expecting freezing temperatures and wind chills in the teens next week. Icy roads are also a risk.
Dothan City Schools and Enterprise City Schools said they are monitoring the weather, and there’s a chance they may close.
A warming shelter will open Sunday, Jan. 19 at 6 p.m. at the First Baptist Church Family Life Center behind the main church building at 300 West Main Street. It will remain open until noon Jan. 23. Meals and cots will be provided. The doors will be locked at 9 p.m. each night.
The last time it snowed in Dothan was on February 12, 2010, when a slight dusting covered the area.
