Bomb Cyclone Causes Record Snowfall and Disruptions Across US Northeast

A powerful bomb cyclone, described as the strongest snowstorm in a decade, has struck the Northeastern United States, dumping over two feet of snow in many areas and causing widespread disruptions. States including New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Rhode Island declared emergencies as heavy snowfall, hurricane-force winds, and coastal flooding led to flight cancellations exceeding 7,000, travel bans, and power outages affecting hundreds of thousands. Recovery efforts continue amid concerns over accessibility and a potential new storm approaching the region.
