ATLANTA – A significant winter storm is marching across the South on Friday after producing snowy and icy weather in the Dallas Metroplex and the southern Plains on Thursday.

That means flights could be held on the ground longer than normal so the airport can better manage traffic during the inclement weather. Winter weather caused crashes on Interstates 75 and 285 in the Atlanta metro area. State plows were ordered to create driveable lanes that were to be retreated to prevent icing on roads, according to McMurry.Despite these precautions, numerous state roads near Atlanta and parts north were closed due to patches of ice, according to the DOT’s website.The Arkansas Department of Transportation reported that the vast majority of roads were covered in snow or slush Friday.

Road conditions began to deteriorate Thursday evening. Dashcam video shows a semi-truck jackknifing on snow-covered Interstate 430 in Little Rock. Bitter cold will accompany the storm with temperatures ranging from near freezing during the day Friday to the teens by Saturday night. Gusty winds will add an extra bite to the cold and make it dangerous to be outside.Additional snow and ice will continue to blanket the South through Friday.
