Felix Bernard and Richard B. Smith teamed up in the 1930s' to write what hit song? White Christmas, With A Song In My Heart, White Cliffs of Dover or Winter Wonderland. Bernard wrote the tune and Smith wrote the lyrics to Winter Wonderland.
That seasonal classic describes the upside of winter weather, but a lot of Americans are seeing it to the extreme. A cold front swept into the west coast last week. It brought powerful winds and heavy rains into central and northern California.

Here's a look at what that rain did to part of Highway 1, the Pacific Coast Highway. As the system made its way east, it put more snow in the forecast for Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois. And as it swept over Pennsylvania meteorologists said it would intensify. The result of that, a nor'easter bringing possible blizzard conditions to New York on Monday. Wind gusts nearing 50 miles per hour, more than a foot of snow in that region.
And half a foot or more possible in Washington, D.C. Residents were warned of ice and sleet from Maryland down to North Carolina. In all more than 100 million Americans or one-third of the country's population were set to feel the chill of winter early this week.
