How come the southern midwest gets more ice storm than the southeast?
Well if you havent noticed it is really cold in the midwest and if your talking about that hard freeze that happened recently then that isnt a good source because that is an occasional senario. It would depend on where you are in the southeast. I live in Oklahoma and we are supposed to be getting an ice storm but it is happening here because the jet stream usually isnt just horizonal…it goes up and down and most of the time during ice storms in the south the jet stream is going almost diagnolly towards the northeast leaving the southeast dry.
