Winter’s siege continues as snows batter midwest
A cold front pushes south across the Great Plains and into the Midwest with heavy snow and freezing rain. Hazardous driving warnings stretch from north-central Texas to the Ohio Valley, with eastern Illinois and northern Indiana under heavy snow warnings. Over four inches of new snow settles atop icy roads as deaths mount to at least 141 since last week. Overnight lows plunge across Montana to Maine, and a low pressure system deepens, pulling Arctic air into the midlands. In New York, Watertown and Jefferson counties declare a disaster area near Lake Ontario as 54 inches of snow buries the region, stranding farmers and forcing milk dumps while emergency supplies decline.
