A "rare" winter storm, named Winter Storm Enzo, is set to bring snow, ice and subfreezing temperatures to the Gulf Coast states early this week, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

A winter storm was on a track to sweep through Texas and Louisiana, across the Gulf Coast and deep into Florida, significant snow and ice in tow.

More than 220 million people across the United States are facing dangerous cold that will also open the door for a potentially historic and crippling winter storm that could deliver snow as far south as Florida and the Gulf of Mexico.

Many folks are calling this a "once-in-a-lifetime" kind of snow. But could it happen again? Well, maybe. Experts tell WEAR News if the conditions are just right, anything could happen on the Gulf Coast.

The builder of the icebreaker Aiviq has given more than $7 million to political campaigns, parties and committees since 2012. Under pressure from Congress, the Coast Guard purchased the vessel late last year.

Historic winter storm shatters records across the South, leaving millions grappling with extreme cold and unprecedented snowfall into the weekend.
