Winter severe storm threat for truckers in South
Late-winter severe storms could spread across the South the next two days as a strong cold front approaches the region.
The front will drench parts of the Plains and Midwest before the rain changes to snow, sleet and freezing rain in those regions. The atmosphere over the South will remain unstable, moist and unseasonably warm at ground level. However, aloft the atmosphere will be very cold. This is a good setup for severe weather.
Truckers are likely to hit scattered areas of gusty straight-line...
