People died because of severe colds that swept the north-eastern part of the country. As Radio Liberty reports, thousands of houses were left without electricity because of frosts, traffic was violated.

Just yesterday, two major airports in New York stopped receiving and sending flights. About 3,500 flights were canceled in the entire region.

In New York, Boston and many other cities closed schools. Frost is also accompanied by a storm wind. Snowfalls are fixed even in the usually warm Florida state. At the same time weather forecasters yet do not expect warming, and the air temperature in many localities can reach minus 40 degrees.
