BUFFALO, New York (AP) – A frigid winter storm killed at least 18 people as it swept across the United States (US), knocking out power to hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses, leaving millions of people on edge about the possibility of blackouts.
The storm unleashed its full fury on Buffalo, New York with hurricane-force winds causing whiteout conditions. Emergency response efforts were paralysed and the city’s international airport was shut down.
