Flights cancelled, state of emergencies issued, and thousands left without power after nor'easter rips through the East Coast.
The snow is expected to move off the Maine coast by Sunday, but the National Weather Service warned “very cold weather” followed by “dangerous chills” will follow the storms."Blizzard conditions are expected to remain possible into early Sunday morning from eastern Massachusetts to eastern Maine, with wind gusts potentially leading to scattered power outages," the National Weather Service said in a public forecast discussion Saturday.
More than 68 million people have been placed under winter weather alerts of varying degrees early Saturday morning. Around 10 million were placed under blizzard warnings. Shoppers were seen stocking up on food supplies and power generators on Friday, according to The Associated Press. If there is a light at the end of the tunnel, it's a forecast of high pressure heading into the northeast, with warmer temperatures and a"drastically" improving outlook ahead, the weather service said.
