Winter storms can bring extreme cold, freezing rain, snow, ice and high winds, resulting in very low visibility, severe drifting and dangerous wind chills. They can also cause down trees, utility poles and power lines, coastal flooding and beach erosion, and ice accumulation[3]. Additionally, winter storms can cause hazardous conditions and hidden problems due to severely cold temperatures and heavy snowfall, as well as disrupt regular daily activities such as school closures due to snow days.
