    Snow blankets New Orleans during historic Gulf Coast winter storm

    The powerful and deadly winter storm swept across the South on Tuesday, dumping heavy snow across areas that rarely see flakes or bitterly cold conditions. The storm prompted the National Weather Service to issue the first-ever Blizzard Warning for southwest Louisiana and southeast Texas.

    New Orleans shattered its one-day snow total record by noon when Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport recorded 4 inches of snow. The new record breaks the Dec. 31, 1963 record of 2.7 inches, and the snow was still coming down Tuesday afternoon.

    Sometimes I wish I had a Harry Potter's wand and make people go up into smoke.

          Guess you folks in the south are just getting a taste of what we deal with EVERY year. Snow sucks! I'd be happy to see temperatures above freezing at this point.

                  But Al Gore said in 2009 that there is,"a 75% chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during some of the summer months, could be completely ice-free within the next five to seven years." So snow in NO is impossible. This must be Trump/Russian disinformation.
