Waterfalls

Niagara Falls, New York

Across the US,

a winter storm caused massive disruption

amid plunging temperatures,

blizzard conditions and ferocious winds.

Power outages hit numerous states,

frigid air struck usually warm states such as Florida

and thousands of flights were cancelled or delayed

causing widespread travel chaos.

It was dubbed a ‘once in a generation’ weather event

by forecasters.
