Storm Punishes Swath of US With Snow, Ice and Freezing Rain

|Updated:

A winter storm that contributed to at least five deaths in the Midwest pummeled the mid-Atlantic region for a second day Jan. 13, bringing with it an icy mix that knocked out power, cancelled flights and contributed to hundreds of car accidents.

Virginia State Police said the driver of a military surplus vehicle was killed late Jan. 12 after he lost control on Interstate 81 because of slick road conditions.
