One police department in Morgan County has declared that crime needs to take a snow day as winter weather is set to hit parts of Alabama Tuesday.

In a Facebook post, the Priceville Police Department joked, “Due to the extreme cold and heavy snow predictions all crime and doing really dumb things has been cancelled until further notice. #NotinPriceville.”

Latest projections by the National Weather Service expect parts of north Alabama, including Priceville, to see approximately 2.5 inches of snow through Tuesday morning.

There is a winter storm warning active for northern Alabama down to Birmingham and even Tuscaloosa from midnight until noon on Tuesday. A winter weather advisory is in place for most of the state south of those two cities.

Forecast update: forecast snow amounts midnight Tuesday through midday Tuesday. Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories remain in effect, advisories and warnings may be adjusted as needed. Keep checking back for further updates later today. pic.twitter.com/h5E54xtpSB
