Coast to coast weather alerts for wind chill, ice and heavy snow as thousands left without power
More than 200 million people in nearly every US state are under various winter weather alerts, including for wind chill, ice and heavy snow, as a huge winter storm system threatens travel chaos and one of the coldest Christmas days on record.
The National Weather Service said it expected a weather phenomenon known as a bomb cyclone – a rapidly strengthening storm that drops 24 millibars of pressure within 24 hours – to develop as it moves into the Great Lakes on Friday. “This is not like a snow day, when you were a kid, this is serious stuff,” the president, Joe Biden, said on Thursday.
Ahead of one of the busiest travel periods of the year, the American Automobile Association said more than 112 million people planned to travel 50 miles or more from home between 23 December and 2 January.
