Photos, Amounts: Snow Hits Major Cities in South

Some of you have asked why Henry and I are not covering this storm well. This is because all of our forecast information is now concentrated in the AccuWeather.com News Center, and that's where most of our energy is focused (although I am still posting on the Forums, see J's Breaking News at right).

GET INVOLVED!
