About this listen
In this critical update from OXY NEWS CHANNEL, we break down the January 24, 2026, warnings regarding "catastrophic" ice accumulation. We examine why meteorologists prioritize the freezing rain corridor over the 30-inch snow zones, citing the "ice-loading" physics that leads to widespread, long-duration power outages. We cover the specific threat to Texas, Alabama, and the Carolinas, where localized totals of 2 inches of ice are possible—far exceeding the threshold for total distribution failure. We also analyze the "Weather Whiplash" effect: the extreme cold front trailing the ice that risks "freeze-offs" in natural gas production.
