A winter storm that dumped sleet and heavy snow on a wide swath of the central United States this week left hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses without power on Friday as treacherous weather threatened parts of the Plains and New England.
More than 330,000 customers were without power from Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee up through Ohio and into New York, Poweroutage.us reported on Friday, after an ice storm downed power lines and trees across the area on Thursday.
Winter storm warnings and advisories also remained in effect for Tennessee and Kentucky up through New York and Pennsylvania and into New England where a mix of sleet and snow were expected to make travel difficult, the service said.
