Ice and snow storms are crippling some states in the Southeast . We may be able to capture the beauty of Mother Nature with high resolution digital images , but capturing the physics behind the snowfall in our sophisticated weather prediction models is much more challenging . Ian ##son : Predicting how much snow will actually accumulate is difficult . He says the process of freezing is complex , involving factors like temperature , moisture . Me : Making the final decision comes down to ` ` seat of the pants '' knowledge in the end .
