Over 5,000 flights were canceled, schools closed in several cities, and more than 300,000 people were left without power. This is the toll of the new snowstorm that has hit the East Coast of the United States.
New York City is also affected, where Mayor Zohran Mamdani has imposed a travel ban. "We ask New Yorkers to avoid all non-essential travel. Please, for your safety, stay home and stay off the roads," the mayor said.
Hundreds of thousands of people are without power due to snow that has knocked down utility poles : 122,000 in New Jersey, 99,000 in Massachusetts, and 71,000 in Delaware. Schools are closed in New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Connecticut, and New Jersey.
