The death toll from a powerful winter storm and unprecedented cold snap in the United States has risen to at least 87, CBS News reported.
This severe storm, which began late last week, has covered more than two-thirds of the United States and affected about 200 million people.
Weather conditions included heavy snow, severe frost, strong winds, and very low temperatures, leading to widespread disruption to traffic, power outages, and safety issues.
CBS News has emphasized that the death toll continues to rise and that local and federal authorities are working to provide relief and restore essential services.
This is one of the most severe winter weather events in recent years in the United States, and its effects continue to affect the daily lives of millions of citizens.
