A major winter storm is set to sweep across much of the nation’s middle section this weekend into early next week, bringing a swath of hazardous snow and ice.
Winter Storm Warnings now cover millions, while Ice Storm Warnings warn of accretions reaching potentially destructive thicknesses of over a half inch. That could lead to widespread power outages and extended travel headaches as power lines, trees and roads become coated in ice.
