01-23-26 Part Two - Riding The Storm Out

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, more than 235 million people across more than 40 states from Arizona to Maine are in the path of a potentially historic winter storm that's expected to extend over 2,000 miles and deliver crippling snow and ice, beginning Friday. A trailing blast of Arctic air associated with the polar vortex is expected to bring a dangerous refreeze that could create long-duration power outages and paralyze travel for days. In anticipation for the intense storm, as of 9 p.m. EST Thursday, nearly 1,300 flights have already been canceled across the U.S. through Saturday, with thousands more expected to be canceled into early next week. Also Texas Governor Greg Abbott says the power grid in Texas will sustain potential loss of power and a subsequent discussion on solar and wind power. Plus seven House Democrats break with Hakeem Jeffries to pass the Department of Homeland Security funding bill, Vice President JD Vance visits Minnesota and a big weekend of football ahead as the NFC/AFC championship will determine who heads to the Superbowl next month where Bad Bunny will wear a dress at the Half Time Show.
