Power outages have also been reported in Canada, affecting 260,000 people in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. The US National Weather Service said that over 200 million people -or roughly 60% of the US population are under some form of winter weather advisory. More than one million people are without power in several states as a powerful Arctic winter storm sweeps through the US and Canada. The storm has brought damaging winds and freezing temperatures that can quickly lead to frostbite. Meteorologists say the winter storm, which began on Tuesday in the Pacific Northwest, could become a “bomb cyclone” by Friday. Could the outage been avoided ?
