COMMENTS: Ice Wipes out Power
For the second straight day, all three newscasts covered the icestorm that has snapped power lines in Arkansas, Missouri and Kentucky, causing electricity blackouts for hundreds of thousands. The storm stretches from Texas to Maine: CBS had Hari Sreenivasan show us the winter wonderland from Dallas; ABC used Eric Horng (embargoed link) in Cincinnati; NBC went with Peter Alexander in upstate New York; and CBS' Early Show weathercaster Dave Price rounded things off in New Hampshire. His drive from Worcester Mass to Concord should have taken 90 minutes. The snow and ice lengthened the trip to three hours and closed local airports: "No flights for us out of New Hampshire tonight."
