A powerful winter storm is sweeping across the United States, creating extreme cold conditions and widespread disruption. Nearly 150 million people are facing freezing temperatures as the storm tightens its grip, while emergency declarations have been issued in around 15 states to manage the escalating situation.
Heavy snowfall and icy winds have severely affected transportation, leading to the cancellation of more than 1,800 flights across the country. Airports, highways, and public transport systems are struggling to operate normally as visibility drops and roads turn dangerous. Authorities have warned that travel could become even more difficult over the next few days.
Power supply is also under threat, with officials cautioning that outages may occur due to the heavy load on electricity networks and damage caused by snow and ice. Utility teams have been placed on high alert to respond quickly in case of failures.
The White House has urged citizens to remain indoors unless absolutely necessary, stressing that the storm could remain intense until Monday. People have been advised to stock up on essentials, keep emergency kits ready, and stay informed through official weather updates.
Meteorologists say this could be one of the harshest winter spells of the season, with dangerously low temperatures increasing the risk of frostbite and hypothermia. Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely as the nation braces for further impact from the severe winter storm.
