Watch the skies and land and oceans

Several members from the forum will be in the path of this. Me being one! It's looking like a good amount of snow and possibly sleet will occur here in Nashville before the freezing rain. Too much freezing rain can be catastrophic. I have a friend from high school living in Memphis, which is kind of in the bullseye for a lot of freezing rain. The peeps in North Carolina will be impacted as well. Keep us in your thoughts!
Absolutely, we will keep all of you in our thoughts plus Candace Owens and her family who are also in Tennessee (she mentioned the winter/snow storm in her show).
 
We're as prepped for the ice storm as we can be. It looks like Tennessee around the Cumberland Plateau is going to get the worst of it, and east of the Smoky Mountains in NC. Even a half inch of freezing rain is really bad for trees and power lines. Some places in the region could get an inch and a half of freezing rain which would devastate the electrical grid for weeks if it happens, especially since we're going to be in an arctic vortex on Monday. None of that ice is going to melt soon. You gonna be alright @genero81 ? You can always bug out here to Caesarea.
 
Here's another video of the damage caused in Sicily by Storm Harris.

This one shows the town of Santa Teresa di Riva, which is 15 km from where I lived more than 20 years ago.
Some of my relatives work there. I know this place very well; I've walked along the seafront countless times.

As it was before 2018:

The people in this area are very used to the strong winds and high waves near the coast.
This video is just an example so you can see the force of the waves and the extent of the damage from this storm.

For those interested in the Italian Air Force's weather forecast, you can see the storm's evolution.
