Whoa, whoa, whoa. How can he say something that far off will be far worse than the ice storm of the century? Is it his modus operandi to make these types of statements?

Dr. Jeff Masters latest blog:
Nasty ice storm for the Deep South
An area of low pressure will track along the Gulf Coast over the next two days, moving east-northeast to a position off the coast of South Carolina on Tuesday night. With cold air firmly entrenched over the deep south, a significant winter storm is expected from Southern Louisiana to Eastern North Carolina. The anti-fun starts in New Orleans Monday night, when rain will change over to freezing rain. Ice accumulations of 1/4" - 1/2" are possible along a swath from Southeast Louisiana through Southern Mississippi, Southern Alabama, the Northwest Florida Panhandle, Southern Georgia, Southern South Carolina, and Eastern North Carolina though Wednesday morning. Snows of 2 - 4" are possible just to the north of the freezing rain swath. This storm has the potential to cause significant damage to trees and power lines, resulting in widespread power outages. Travel will be very dangerous in the areas affected by the heaviest freezing rain and snow.

some safety tips for driving:
quote:
Driving conditions change depending on the type of
weather. Winter driving safety tips include:
• Check antifreeze, defroster, emergency signals,
heater, lights, oil, tires, windshield washer fluid and
wiper blades.
• Have emergency supplies in vehicle, including
blanket, jumper cables, first aid kit, flashlight, ice
scraper, sand/gravel, food and water, old winter
clothes (boots) and a cellphone.
• Double the vehicle’s following distance on winter or
wet roads.
• Watch for slick, icy spots on roads, bridges
and overpasses.
• Remember that stopping distance increases by half
during rain, doubles in snow and is three times longer
on icy roads.
• When braking, gently tap and release brake pedal in a
pumping motion. Apply antilock brakes with a steady,
gentle pressure. In an emergency, jam the peddle to
floor until it pulsates
