A powerful winter storm is set to hit the East Coast, threatening heavy snow and ice in several states. The Midwest was already hit with snow, and the storm is moving across the Tennessee and Ohio Valleys. Virginia and North Carolina are expected to see up to 10 inches of snow and significant ice accumulations. A polar vortex is bringing record-breaking cold temperatures from Montana to Texas. North Carolina and Virginia have declared states of emergency, urging people to stay off roads.
The storm is hitting areas already reeling from deadly weekend floods in the Midwest and southern West Virginia, where several people lost their lives and thousands were left without power. The incoming snowstorm is expected to hinder relief efforts in these areas. Bone-chilling cold temperatures have affected over 80 million people in the midsection of the country, leading to school closures and online learning. Despite the challenges, people like Stephanie Hatzenbuhler are adapting to the harsh conditions on their farm and ranch.
