A massive winter storm has taken the lives of at least 30 people, as it continued to bring snow, sleet, and freezing rain over a large portion of the eastern half of the United States on Monday.

The storm began impacting the South late last week and moved into the Northeast over the weekend. It created dangerous conditions over an approximately 1,300-mile span, with much of the country enduring ongoing subzero temperatures and extreme cold warnings.
