Vicious storm triggers historic coastal flooding as Arctic chill tees up the South’s first snow
A severe storm continues to batter the central and eastern United States, resulting in dangerous winds, blizzard conditions, and coastal flooding. High water levels on Maine’s coast reached a record level on Saturday, leading to flash flood warnings. In addition to the extreme weather conditions, an Arctic air blast is spreading through the central U.S., bringing snow and ice to the South. More than 450,000 homes and businesses are without power from the Great Lakes to the South due to strong winds and heavy snow. The storm is expected to continue, with 75% of the U.S. predicted to experience temperatures below freezing over the next 7 days.
