An intense winter storm will dump a mix of heavy snow and freezing rain on the U.S. Northeast on Friday, creating dangerous travel conditions while knocking out power to homes and businesses.
A region reaching from northern Ohio up through Pennsylvania and into New York state is expected to get 1/4 inch of ice accumulation, while as much as a foot of snow was in the forecast to the north in New England through the day, the National Weather Service said.
The buildup of ice could also down trees and power lines across the region, the weather service warned. As of Friday morning, nearly 20,000 homes and businesses in Ohio and another 16,000 in Pennsylvania were without power, according to Poweroutage.us.
