NPR  

Snow and ice impact millions as major winter storm moves across the U.S. Tens of millions of Americans are dealing with snow and ice today after a powerful winter storm system has churned across the Midwest and parts of the East Coast. NICK SWARTSELL, BYLINE: The massive winter storm swept into the region quickly Sunday, escalating from light flurries to a thick blanket on roads and sidewalks in a matter of hours. SWARTSELL: As the severity of the storm became apparent last week, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine urged people to make proper preparations. ANDY HATZOS: Coming out of a period where we're going to have so much snow, travel difficulty and maybe infrastructure issues, perhaps even power outages in some locations - having that cold temperature is certainly an additional problem that people need to be ready for and prepared for.
