前所未有的冬季天气导致亚特兰大都会区陷入瘫痪，当地官员敦促居民就地避难并远离结冰的道路。 佐治亚州学区在今天（1月23日，周四）继续停课。
该地区的形势依然严峻，车辆滞留、汽车被遗弃以及危险情况十分普遍。截至昨天（1月22日，周三）下午 5 点，FlightAware 报告称，亚特兰大国际机场已有 800 多个航班延误，440 多个进出港航班被取消。
周二（1月21日），一场史无前例的冬季暴风雪导致数十名司机被困在结冰的道路上，许多人被迫在车里过夜，因为路况变得太危险，无法驾驶。亚特兰大都会区宣布进入紧急状态，理由是道路状况持续危险。华人聚居的格威内特县报告了 1,800 多个紧急呼叫和近 600 起车祸，还有两名警员受伤。
在迪卡尔布县，有超过 100 辆汽车被困，当地接到了 100 多通维修电话。该地区的加油站，包括 Rock Chapel Road 和 Pleasant Hill 附近的加油站，都变成了无法回家的民众的临时停车场。
Young Road路旁停放着数十辆被遗弃的车辆，甚至一辆 MARTA 巴士也滞留在Redan Road路上。许多地区仍被冰雪覆盖，由于气温极低，冰雪融化缓慢。
周二晚上，Clifton Road路上结冰，导致一名肇事逃逸的司机撞上了停在街上的另一辆汽车。
许多司机被迫就地寻求避难。周二晚上，无法回家的司机在加油站（例如位于Pleasant Hill Road路附近Rock Chapel Road路的一家雪佛龙Chevron加油站）里临时躲了起来。有些人在车里呆了 12 个小时以上，用车上的暖气取暖。
当地官员已经部署了盐罐车来改善道路状况，但一些地区仍然危险重重。官方敦促居民除非绝对必要，否则不要上路。
孕妇从结冰道路获救
更为困难的是，一名孕妇在去医院的路上需要救援，一些地区的消防车被困在结冰的道路上。
“昨晚太疯狂了，伙计，”一位不愿透露姓名的司机说。他把车停在加油站，和其他停车、打开暖气、等待路况好转的人一样。“结冰的路面无法行驶，所以我们不得不把车停在加油站。谢天谢地，这是个加油站，所以那些没有汽油的人可以加点油。我们大部分时间都坐在车里。”
迈克·威廉姆斯是陷入混乱的众多居民之一。“没地方可去。所有的车都堵住了。进退不得。所以只能站在那里，”威廉姆斯最终耗尽了汽油，别无选择，只能步行三个小时回家。
居民伊莎贝尔·弗里德曼说，她和家人当时正在客厅，突然听到外面传来一声巨响。他们家的监控摄像头拍下了一名司机撞上邻居车然后开车离开的瞬间。
“这有点疯狂。这种情况经常发生，虽然没有到那种极端的程度，但一堆镜子被撞掉了，却没有人留下来帮忙，”弗里德曼说。
周三下午，一辆拖车终于将车辆拖走。
加油站成为滞留司机的避难所
在迪卡尔布县的另一个地方，一名妇女描述了加油站的情景，那里有 20 到 30 辆汽车被遗弃。“我只想回家。这就是我想要的。我只想安全回家，”她说。这名妇女在车里度过了一夜，她回忆道：“到处都是冰。汽车在四处旋转。这里到处都是冰。冰，冰，冰。”
卡车司机达里尔·贾马尔被困在几英里外的大道上，他和大约 10 名其他拖车司机被迫在车里过夜。“这太令人沮丧了，伙计，因为他们应该撒点盐，但我们没有看到有人来帮忙。这太令人沮丧了，尤其是想回家和家人团聚的时候，”贾马尔说。
“太可怕了。这是一次不错的经历，但太可怕了，”被迫将车停在加油站并步行回家的阿尔西娅·派说。“我不得不将车停在加油站，然后一路步行回家。”
她将这场风暴的影响与她在纽约的经历进行了比较，她说：“这比纽约更糟糕。这更糟糕。在纽约，我们街上有井盖，而且雪一落下就开始融化。所以，是的，这里更糟糕。”
由于这场冬季风暴的严重影响，佐治亚州学区今天继续停课。
