The south is getting pounded by a historical & crippling ice storm. This message from the National Weather Service in Atlanta, GA: THIS IS A STORM OF HISTORICAL PROPORTIONS WITH POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC...CRIPPLING IMPACTS. AS SIGNIFICANT AS THE SNOWFALL IS...AND MAKE NO MISTAKE THESE ARE SOME IMPRESSIVE TOTALS...IT IS THE ICE THAT WILL HAVE THE CATASTROPHIC IMPACTS. ICE TOTALS REMAIN VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY OUT BUT THINK THE 1/4 INCH LINE MAY BE A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH AND MAX TOTALS ALONG THE EAST I-20 CORRIDOR ARE BUMPED UP A LITTLE TO OVER AN INCH. ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS CANNOT BE RULED OUT. IN CASE IT HASNT BEEN MADE CLEAR ALREADY...THESE ARE CATASTROPHIC AND CRIPPLING TOTALS WHICH COULD RESULT IN WIDESPREAD POWER OUTAGES THAT MAY LAST FOR DAYS. IF RESIDENTS HAVE NOT COMPLETED THEIR PREPARATIONS IT MAY BE TOO LATE.
