A gigantic winter storm has hit the United States East Coast. It has dumped 43 centimeters of snow in some areas. The intensity of the storm is so much so that it has been termed as ‘Bomb Cyclone’.

Strong hurricane-force winds, flooding, snow has led to the closure of schools and offices from the Carolinas to Maine. Winter storm, created havoc killing humans and animals. The roads are blocked with ice and water which has majorly affected the transport. Many airports have been closed in New York and many areas as the winds are harsh and snow occurring without taking much break.
