A major winter storm will bring heavy snow from the Upper

the central Gulf Coast with lesser showers over the
southeastern corner of the nation. A zone of heavy ice is in
store from part of the central Great Lakes to the central

will sweep in behind the storm over the Plains. The latest
storm from the Pacific will hammer the Northwest with rain
