Heavy snowfall for U.S.  Southeast

Higher elevations northeast of Atlanta could see up to a foot.

A juicy winter storm is poised to deliver heavy rain and snow from Georgia to Maryland, The Washington Post warned yesterday.

Winter storm warnings and winter weather advisories have been issued across the Southeast and into the Mid-Atlantic covering more than 300,000 square miles and impacting more than 47 million people.

Snowfall totals up to 5 inches are in the forecast from northern Mississippi to Georgia, while higher elevations northeast of Atlanta could see up to a foot.

Snow and ice began to accumulate quickly from Arkansas to northern Alabama on Wednesday morning as the storm tracked east.

Georgia governor Nathan Deal declared a state of emergency for 50 counties in north Georgia.
