Eleven people were killed as a result of the powerful snowstorm that swept across five US states.
NBC News quoted the authorities as saying: 11 people died in five states after a series of storms with devastating winds hit the region, including 5 in Kentucky, one in Tennessee, three in Alabama, one in Arkansas, and one in Mississippi. .
Snow covered parts of New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, causing dozens of cars, trucks and trailers to slide off the roads, and strong winds caused a number of trees to fall and power outages.
Many Californians are stranded in mountainous areas, and many in Los Angeles are expected to remain trapped in their homes for at least another week.
The Met Office warned of continued strong winds and heavy snowfall in the northeastern regions and northern New England, and warnings of flooding were issued in the coastal areas of northern California and southern Oregon.
