Major winter storm now spreading across Northeast

A powerful winter storm that began Tuesday night produced freezing rain and heavy snow the past two days from the Southwest to the Great Lakes.

Thick ice weighed down tree limbs and power lines, especially in parts of the mid-Mississippi Valley and Ohio Valley. As of 8 a.m. Friday, more than 350,000 customers had no electricity in eight states, from Texas to New York. Almost 132,000 of those customers were in Tennessee, with most outages in the Memphis area, according to PowerOutage.us.
