An intense winter storm finally passed through Texas on Thursday, but residents will feel the impact of the storm for more time. The storm led to power outages in hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses.
The weather in the state is part of a major ice storm hitting the Southern U.S. since Tuesday, stretching from Texas to Tennessee. Statewide, the arctic conditions shuttered classrooms, canceled or delayed thousands of flights, and caused numerous car collisions, including one fatal crash in Austin.
