NDTV
Blizzard conditions are anticipated across much of the US due to what weather experts are describing as a "life-threatening" bomb cyclone.
As a bomb cyclone is predicted to bring blizzard conditions and strong winds to a significant portion of the continental United States during the approaching Christmas week, severe winter weather is expected to have an impact on millions of people across the country, according to Metro News.

The media outlet further said that the National Weather Service (NWS) has issued winter weather advisories and warnings to numerous states and has warned that the entire nation might see dangerously low temperatures and snow showers. Many western states, including large portions of Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming, have issued winter weather advisories.
"These areas are also expected to see sudden snow squalls, when snow falling at over 1 inch per hour combines with wind gusts to create hazardous driving conditions."
