Dahlke said that he has trucks working these areas.
Pell City roads and south St. Clair County roads in Moody are in good shape, with a few icy patches.
Ellen Haynes with the St. Clair Emergency Management Agency said that now is the time for area residents who are at home to look out for one another as temperatures drop to the mid-teens going into the weekend.
“If you're home, put on your coat and help each other out; it only takes a moment to walk down the street and check on your neighbors. Also be sure to bring your pets inside and make sure they have fresh water,” Haynes said.
