Check out the flow from the Gulf of Mexico from Louisiana into the storm system. This will be another unusual set-up for us with tremendous amounts of low level moisture available for the storm.
This storm will likely produce near blizzard conditions where it is snowing and severe thunderstorms farther south. There could be tornado watches and Blizzard warnings just about a state apart.
