(ANSA) - NEW YORK, JAN 16 - A powerful winter storm is blowing in the south and east coast of the United States.
More than 60 million Americans are in the grip of the cold from firmly below freezing temperatures, rain, snow and ice.
Tens of thousands of people are without electricity in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida, and thousands of people have been canceled at major airports.
Weather conditions are expected to worsen in the next few hours and it is not excluded, warns the Federal Aviation Administration, that some scales may close.
