Ice storm calms in Southeast as Super Bowl draws crowds
A winter storm that glazed much of the Southeast moved up the East Coast on Sunday, leaving drier roads for football fans headed to Georgia Dome for the Super Bowl. The system dumped snow sleet and rain from the Carolinas to southeastern New York, knocked out power to tens of thousands, and had earlier delivered heavy snow in the southern Plains and the South. In Maryland and Virginia the storm caused hundreds of thousands to lose power and flight cancellations mounted.
