The winter storm that began in the Midwest
and moved to the Northeast is now blamed for at least 14 deaths.
Police in New Jersey say one person died during the night in a
15-car pileup that also injured 28 people.
Drivers in the Northeast today have been navigating a
treacherous mix of rain, sleet and snow. States have put hundreds
of plows on the roads, including 650 in New Hampshire. Schools have
canceled or delayed classes from New York to Maine as highways
became slick and winds gusted to 40 miles an hour.
The poor conditions caused flights to be canceled today at the
Portland International Jetport in Maine.
Across the country a separate storm raked the Oregon and
Washington coasts with wind gusting higher than 100 miles an hour
in some spots and surf reported 45 feet high. That storm system is
expected to give the Midwest another taste of snow.
