A state of emergency has been declared in Kentucky, Virginia, Kansas, Arkansas and Missouri and parts of the US unaccustomed to severe cold, including Mississippi and Florida, have been warned to expect treacherous conditions.

I don't get this. The most I have seen prediction wise is like a foot or so. I mean its a lot but not like epic blizzard proportions. It says worst snow in over a decade but like the last decade snowfall overall has been pretty mild.
