Winter storm covers parts north-east US in snow

Footage shows snow covering parts of the US as an intense winter storm hits multiple US states including Connecticut and New Jersey.

A full travel ban has been in place in New York City from 21:00 local time (02:00 GMT) on Sunday to 12:00 local time (17:00 GMT) on Monday.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani said schools will be closed and all streets, highways and bridges will be shut to traffic – besides for emergencies.

It is expected to be the most powerful nor’easter storm in nearly a decade for much of the region, bringing snow, fierce winds and coastal flooding.
