It is described as a “life-threatening blizzard” by the US National Weather Service – and it has hit the northeastern states.

Strong winds and heavy snow almost a metre deep are predicted to strike an area from New Jersey to Maine, affecting up to 20 percent of Americans.

The Weather Prediction Center issued a storm summary message warning of “high impact winter storm expected to bring crippling snowfall amounts and life-threatening blizzard conditions”.

by the national weather service:
A storm system off the East Coast will continue to strengthen as it develops into a major nor'easter on Monday. As the storm moves up the coast, it is expected to bring snowfall of 1-3 feet or more to many parts of the Northeast through Tuesday evening, including New York City and Boston. Strong, gusty winds will combine with the snow to create blizzard conditions along and near the coast.
