New Hampshire - The death toll from a powerful winter
storm that pushed through the US midsection into the northeast has risen to 12.
Officials in Indiana say a man and a woman were killed
when the scooter they were riding went out of control on a snowy street on
Wednesday and they were hit by a pickup truck.
The storm was dumping snow on parts of the Northeast a
day after it left a record snowfall in Arkansas and challenged holiday travel
plans around the region.
Despite the weather, no flights were delayed on Thursday
morning to cities like New York, Philadelphia and Boston.
The National Weather Service says the Northeast's
heaviest snow accumulations will be in northern Pennsylvania, upstate New York
and inland sections of several New England states.
In coastal areas, the storm is mostly bringing high winds
and heavy rain.
