Ice from winter storm leaves a million customers without power across the South

On Sunday, PowerOutage.us reported about 1 million customers without power across the South as a massive winter storm dumped sleet, freezing rain and snow up through New England.
Ice accumulation in Nashville and nearby areas overloaded local trees and utility lines, with roughly a half inch of ice snapping branches and causing widespread outages.
More than 9,600 U.S. flights were cancelled for Sunday, with over 4,000 cancelled on Saturday, as flight tracking website FlightAware reported about 213 million people under winter weather warnings.
Local utility crews were pulled from roads due to life-threatening conditions, slowing repairs while the Federal Emergency Management Agency pre-positioned supplies and President Donald Trump approved emergency declarations Saturday.
Forecasters said ice and snow would continue through Monday, threatening almost 180 million people and prolonging dangerous travel and infrastructure impacts, the National Weather Service said.
