NASHVILLE—As a vast winter storm continues to make its way across the eastern United States, various municipalities have begun to report deaths as hundreds of thousands of people remain without power and thousands more remain stranded in airports across the country.
In New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said that at least five people had been found dead outside as temperatures dove to as low as 9 degrees Fahrenheit on Jan. 24. He noted that the cause of their deaths remained under investigation. Mamdani urged people to stay inside and off the roads as New York state remains in a state of emergency.
