Winter weather photos of icy conditions, strong winds, and freezing storms dominated the headlines this week as an arctic blast froze most of the country. There hasn’t been much time to thaw out, and now a second round of extreme cold is coming through the U.S.
Along with the cold came power outages in the Pacific Northwest. Other areas saw multiple car pile-ups from icy roads. Authorities are reporting several deaths related to the weather in different places around the U.S. The next batch of cold weather also comes with moisture, meaning the chance for snow. Weather officials predict the heaviest snowfall so far this winter.
It’s been hard to get outdoors unless you truly love winter sports. Many are stuck at home, thinking of warmer days.
