STORYLINE:
A rare winter storm charging through Texas and the northern Gulf Coast has closed highways and airports and prompted the first blizzard warning for southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana.

Across Louisiana, officials urged residents to “stay home" and not "go sightseeing” during the storm, warning any road ice could make travel dangerous.

The storm is expected to drop heavy snow and create treacherous conditions, including freezing rain and sleet Tuesday.

Ahead of the storm, governors in Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, declared states of emergency and many school systems canceled classes Tuesday.

Forecasters warned the sub-freezing morning lows could threaten sensitive vegetation and exposed plumbing in areas unaccustomed to bitter cold.

The weather service warned power outages were possible in areas of significant snow and ice accumulation.
