Nearly 1 million power outages cripple East Coast as winter storm lashes Northeast

Another powerful storm system lashed the Northeast, with coastal flooding and damaging winds that produced nearly a million power outages in New England through the mid-Atlantic states.

At least 147,910 customers are without power as of 5 a.m. on Sunday, according to PowerOutage.US.

The system struck Pennsylvania and New Jersey, leaving at least 115,000 and 70,000 people respectively in the dark.

LaGuardia Airport canceled 44 departing flights while Newark Airport and JFK Airport canceled 39 and 20 flights, Flight Aware reported.

The storm also snarled travel in the central US after blizzard conditions blasted the Plains and produced damaging thunderstorms and tornadoes that ravaged the Southeast.
