Fifty million Americans were under winter weather watches and advisories Monday amid warnings of a "prolonged and potentially significant icing event" affecting at least 15 states.
A swath of the nation from Texas to Ohio and Tennessee was bracing for days of treacherous travel conditions as an arctic cold front swept down into the southern Plains and Mid-South, the National Weather Service said. Freezing rain totals could become significant across parts of central Texas, southwest Oklahoma and central Arkansas, the weather service said.
"The interaction of an arctic air mass and moisture will set the stage for an expansive area of dangerous travel conditions early in the week," weather service meteorologist Craig Snell said. "Sleet and freezing rain accumulations are likely to create widespread hazardous travel conditions for several days in a row."

Global WARMING is a horrible thing, as we sit here in 13 degree temperatures and an artic blast that is freezing out most of the country. But hey, it's 72 degrees in Honolulu.

Global warming is a natural occuring thing. The tree huggers want us to think otherwise.

SPC Lyle Montgomery - A little bit of sarcasm in my comment. I tell people all the time, the earth, in all it's majesty, supports life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, especially here in the USA. Can't say that about Jupiter, Saturn, Venus or any other worlds that are in our solar system. People need to count their blessings instead of causing hate and discontent.
