While many Americans woke up to a white Christmas, residents in southern states are bracing for tornados. Texas is on high alert as snowstorm Euclid passes through. Yes, snowstorms have names now.

The #weatherchannel has been rather hokey lately. Anybody else annoyed with the new winter storm names? #Euclid

The Weather Channel will be LIVE on the air until at least 11pm WEDNESDAY to track #Euclid & the #tornado threat for the south

Funny name or not, forewarned is forearmed. To all our readers in the tornado zone, take care and stay safe!
