A Massive Ice Storm Is Pummeling The Northeast US

Weather Channel
The East Coast could get up to a foot of snow, according to Reuters.
Sleet and freezing rain are also hitting the Midwest, Northeast, and even some southern states.
Schools in some states are shut down, and more than 92,000 people are without power in New Jersey. Residents of New York City face an icy commute as snow from last night melts and freezing rain continues to fall.
Thousands of flights around the country have been canceled.
Here are some photos from around the country:
