106 million in path of latest winter blast --- (CNN) -- Here we go again. On the heels of a January and February filled with vicious, snarling storms, the first March wave of arctic air pushing eastward has prompted National Weather Service warnings, watches, and advisories for as many as 106 million people. -- Snow is threatening to add to the already record-high accumulations in cities across the Midwest, Southeast and Northeast. The winter-weary Washington area is awaiting a dangerous tenth of an inch of ice, topped by 8 to 12 inches of snow. -- This storm is a coast-to-coast event. It started as a low pressure system dumping rain on California, then proceeded east in two prongs. As the northern prong of the system has cascaded across the country, it's delivered dangerous, even deadly, weather to places unfazed by typical winters. - More, Mark Morgenstein, CNN, http://www.cnn.com/2014/03/02/us/us-severe-weather/index.html?hpt=hp_t2
