A powerful blizzard has pummeled a huge swath of the northeastern United States. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio has warned of “tremendous danger and difficulty” when moving around the city.
States in the northeastern US were hit by a powerful winter storm on Monday morning, causing massive disruption in New York City and other major urban areas.
Winter storm warnings and weather advisories were put in place in advance, with New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy declaring a state of emergency and suspending public bus and commuter rail services for the entire day. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio imposed restrictions on non-essential travel from early morning due to the heavy snowfall. (DW)
