ATLANTA — Thousands of commuters were trapped in cars
overnight on highways in the greater Atlanta area, hundreds of students
remained inside dozens of schools Wednesday morning and at least 50 children
spent the night on school buses because of an ice storm that is still gripping
the deepest parts of the South.
Residents ran out
of medicine, a baby was born to a stranded mother and pleas for help flooded
Twitter and Facebook as a region that rarely deals with ice and snow came to a
screeching halt during a rare meteorological event that was still icing points
this morning as far south as Brownsville, Tex.
