South Surprised by Snowstorm

Flights canceled in Texas, Georgia.

After a week of record snowfall in the Mid-Atlantic, Southern states like Texas, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina—where schools close at even the possibility of a rare snowfall—were also seeing white on Friday. While a foot of snow in Texas led to almost 200 traffic accidents, Florida's dusting only lasted for about 10 minutes. "I've only ever seen snow on TV till now," said a 6 year old in Penascola. The storm caused American Airlines to cancel 240 flights on Friday, most of them at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. 1,100 flights were also canceled in Atlanta due to an expected two inches of snow.
