. The pics to come out of it are apocalyptic. Freezing temperatures saw electricity cut off for more than 200,000 people across the eastern states of America on Christmas Day. Flights were cancelled and holidays ruined as the storm — which has been going for fives days now — raged on. Ferocious winds left 48 US states in negative degrees during the weekend, with Chicago hitting -21C on Friday. Some local reports say as many as 30 people have lost their lives in weather-related incidents.

Erie County Executive warned the death toll is expected to rise as some people had been stuck in cars for more than two days and others were snowed into their homes without access to medicine.
