I'm looking at the wording from the Memphis NWS regarding the Winter Storm Warning and it says: " Significant snow and ice accumulations will be possible across much of the region." Then it says sleet and snow accumulations will only be 2 inches or less. Seems a little contradictory.

That is significant for there, especially when some of it is ice.

Lol ok. I just figured being in TN they would be a little more used to snow and ice than say a place like Jackson or Birmingham. 2 inches seems rather minimal but I guess because of the ice that is what makes it significant.
