A winter storm that began with a whimper parked itself Friday over the Northeast, bringing hurricane-force winds, flooding and heavy snow as it cut power to more than a million people.
In New York City, nearly 53 centimeters of snow had fallen by midday and flakes were still falling. A man was killed by a falling snow-laden tree branch in Central Park, one of at least three deaths being blamed on the storm. (AP)
