Northeastern US Bomb Cyclone Disrupts Travel

A major winter storm, described as a 'bomb cyclone/nor'easter' and the strongest in a decade, blanketed the United States===Northeastern United States with record-breaking snow. Over 3 feet of snow fell in United States===Rhode Island, surpassing the Blizzard of 1978. The storm led to the cancellation of approximately 2,200 flights, primarily affecting airports in New York, United States===New Jersey, and Boston. Amtrak canceled trains, and hundreds of thousands lost electricity in United States===Massachusetts, United States===New Jersey, United States===Delaware, and United States===Rhode Island. While United States===New York City schools remained open, United States===Philadelphia switched to online learning. Another storm is anticipated later in the week, potentially exacerbating cleanup efforts.
