how does that tally up to what we've already seen in places like minneapolis in history? well, if we break 17 inches which is very possible, we could enter that top five spot. not quite as likely for us to take the top spot. but it's going to be impact nonetheless. blowing snow is going to make for travel to be even more difficult. we have the ice accumulation that we're going to see, power outages, again, difficult travel. the bull's-eye for some of that is going to be parts of southern michigan. you could see up to a quarter inch or a half inch of this ice accumulating over the next day or so. and there's that severe weather. it does have impacts in places like st. louis, tulsa, all of these locations could have the potential to see strong to even severe storms. >> angie lassman, appreciate it. >>> up next, a busy morning at the supreme court where we could get some major decisions this hour. and more arguments on whether social media companies are responsible for the content users post. >>> plus, the floor woman of the georgia grand jury investigating election interfer
