Snow, ice blasts through South with powerful storm

A dangerous winter storm combining high winds and ice was sweeping through parts of the U.S. Southeast on Sunday, knocking out power, felling trees and fences and coating roads with a treacherous, frigid glaze. 

Tens of thousands of customers were without power in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida.  A tornado ripped through a trailer park in Florida. By noon Sunday, between 8 and 12 inches of snow had fallen in some counties of North Carolina, while significant icing was causing problems in the central part of the state.
