Northeast US snowstorm disrupts travel and schools

A major snowstorm in the northeastern United States has dumped up to 60 cm of snow, forcing widespread flight cancellations and school closures across states including New York. Airlines have canceled more than 2,000 flights over several days and are now adding extra services to clear stranded passengers as airports reopen. Local authorities are racing to clear roads and prepare for a possible second storm forecast to hit parts of the region soon.
