Evening update: I don't think people appreciate what's coming to Texas --> Southeast and the Carolinas over the next 10-12 days. Hide the women and children.
Some of the model solutions are historic / catastrophic and previously thought impossible.

We can handle snowfall -- mostly.
Next 6-days: large area of 12-18" stretches from Oklahoma to the Carolinas along Interstate 40 through Nashville.
This "battle ground" may adjust north/south.
Temperatures will not be warming anytime soon so this snow will remain on ground.

What we can't handle is "heavy freezing rain" and ice accumulation south of this "snow zone"
Boatloads of subtropical moisture out of the Pacific + Gulf of Mexico will overrun Arctic air in the 20s (°F) and fall through it --> Saturday into Sunday.

My favorite weather model variable (precipitable water) shows the collision of extremely cold Arctic air from Canada with tropical air from Pacific/Gulf of Mexico.
The warmer/moist air will go above denser cold pool. Any precipitation falls as snow or freezing rain / sleet.
