A series of winter storms are affecting the eastern United States and parts of Europe, with significant snowfall, cold temperatures, and travel disruptions. The eastern US is experiencing its second round of snow this week, with the Ohio Valley, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast receiving 1-3 inches of snow. A late-week storm may cause travel delays and gusty winds up to 40 mph. Cities like Cincinnati have already accumulated over 24 inches of snow this season, making it one of the snowiest winters in recent years. Meanwhile, a storm in Madrid, Spain, brought unusual heavy snow that shut down roads and schools, following a deadly ice storm in Portugal that left over 800,000 power outages. In New York City, two snowfalls are expected, with totals up to 3 inches and wind gusts causing visibility issues. The city also faces extreme cold, with 16 deaths attributed to the cold since January 19, and forecasted temperatures dropping into the teens and twenties. A potential coastal storm may develop off the northeastern coast by Sunday. Overall, these weather events highlight the ongoing severe winter conditions across the US and Europe, with impacts on transportation, power, and public safety.
