A major storm system is set to bring “potentially catastrophic” winter weather across the southern U.S. this weekend, bringing snow, freezing rain and ice pellets to a substantial swath of the country.
It could be the “storm that defines the entire winter,” according to some meteorologists.
Overall, nearly 30 states could feel the effects from New Mexico all the way to New York starting Friday.
The National Weather Service warns that not only will this be a significant storm event but that there will be dangerously cold temperatures both before and after it passes — and in places that aren’t accustomed to such frigid conditions.
But there’s still “a lot of uncertainty,” David Nadler, a warning co-ordination meteorologist with the NWS in Peachtree City, Ga., said in a special briefing Wednesday afternoon.
True but there’s nothing relevant about man made climate change here, this is a warning of an impending weather event. You can see it on your weather app.

Snowstorms were even worse before accelerated climate change and it was still news if a bad one was on the horizon.
