Flights grounded and events canceled as dangerous deep freeze grips unexpected parts of US

Snow cancellations and delays may be nothing new for the Northeast — but this weekend, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida were among the states that have seen big events canceled or postponed due to frigid temperatures.

From the coastal Carolinas through the Northeast and New England, winter weather was forecast — and was expected to cause travel headaches on Saturday and Sunday, as Fox Weather has been reporting.

Airlines canceled scores of flights for Saturday and beyond in anticipation of the extreme weather.
