A massive winter storm swept across the central and Northeast United States on Thursday where it was delivering heavy snow and ice, making travel treacherous if not impossible, knocking out power to thousands and closing schools in several states.

Winter and ice storm warnings remained in effect for a wide swathe of the United States that reached from Texas up through the Midwest and into New England until Friday morning, the National Weather Service said.

After the storm dumped heavy snow on the Midwest on Wednesday, parts of the region were forecast to see another 15 cm of snow on Thursday, accompanied by high winds of up to 56 km per hour. More than a half inch of ice may accumulate by Friday morning in some spots, possibly causing power outages, tree damage and dangerous travel conditions, the weather service warned.

More than 220 000 homes and businesses in Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee were without power on Thursday afternoon, Power outages.us reported.
