Snowjam 2014: What the AJC's covering today

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's staff is working around the clock to provide unmatched coverage of the winter storm and its aftermath.

Here are some of the stories you'll see online today and in the newspaper Thursday:

Some metro Atlanta schools were forced to hold impromptu sleepovers after roads became impassable and school buses were rendered inoperable. We gather parent outrage and tell the story of how those schools survived.
How did a relatively small amount of snow caused at least 24 hours of gridlock in Atlanta? Gov. Nathan Deal and Mayor Kasim Reed said they'd learned lessons from a serious storm three years ago that shut down the city. But it happened again. How? Why?
A narrative tick-tock of how this mess developed and a comprehensive timeline of how it unfolded.
We are still in the process of cleaning up this mess. What's next?
Metro Atlanta rose to the occasion. People took to social media to organize shelter for those stranded by the weather. Businesses stayed open. Neighbors helped neighbors. Our reporters are gathering the best coping stories in metro Atlanta to weave together in a poignant tale.
How social media -- Facebook and Twitter in particular -- played a big role in Tuesday's storm.
